Negation of Logistics Rules in Managing the Operation of Motorways in Poland
Journal Title: Logistics and Transport - Year 2018, Vol 39, Issue 3
Abstract
Costs for tolling a motorway in Poland should take into account not only profits of owners and managers, but also difficulties and losses incurred by road users. Lack of smoothness of travel as well as high tolls do not have a positive impact on the country's economic development. The nervousness and stress of drivers and passengers trapped in cars standing in traffic jams in front of the gates on motorways - they indicate an important social problem. The costs of fuel burnt during forced stops, costs of harmful effects on the environment, pollution from car exhaust emissions while waiting on the highway in front of the gates – they all are a significant burden. Failure to ensure the conditions for a smooth ride causing the need to wait on the highway in front of the gates is an example of disregarding people, wastage and deliberate harm to the environment for disproportionate profits charges for using the highways.
