The transition from fuel excise to road user charges appears to be a logical, necessary step for Australia. It offers a sustainable way to fund road maintenance, support the adoption of electric vehicles, and ensure equitable contributions from all road users.

Embracing this change could secure transportation funding well into the future, aligning the country’s road networks with its environmental and economic ambitions.
