Trucks to pay to use causeway
KUWAIT: The Public Authority for Roads and Transportation (PART) said yesterday that truck drivers will start paying fees while using Sheikh Jaber Causeway from today. PART said in a press release that the fees for the transit of trucks on the bridge will be KD 1 per ton of the truck’s total weight, adding that payment will be collected at entrances in Shuwaikh, Doha and Subbiya. Truckers should comply with the compulsory route to the truck weighing station to pay the transit fee through bankcards or prepaid cards, as cash payment is unacceptable. Minister of Public Works and Minister of State for Housing Affairs Jenan Boushehri said the expected revenues will be used to cover part of the cost of maintenance and operation and periodic inspection and supervision. – KUNA
