Article 1 – point 2
Directive 1999/62/EC
Article 7h – paragraph 3
Article 7h – paragraph 3
3. Subject to the conditions provided for in Article 7f(3)(b) and in Article 7f(4), toll rates may, in exceptional cases, namely specific projects of high European interest, be subject to other forms of variation in order to secure the commercial viability of such projects where they are exposed to direct competition with other modes of vehicle transport. The resulting charging structure shall be linear, proportionate, openly published, and available to all users on equal terms and shall not lead to additional costs being passed on to other users in the form of higher tolls. Any alteration to tolls must not create disproportionate obstacles to freedom of movement and to the apportionment of costs, in the interests of sound economic growth in all sectors and the proper functioning of the internal market. The Commission shall verify compliance with these conditions prior to the implementation of the charging structure in question.
