Here is part of that notification:\r\n\r\nCity Link tolls for heavy vehicles are intended to rise up to 125% on April 1. The cost of a day pass will rise from $11.85 to $26.70 and night time tolls will double from $8.90 to $17.80. Trucks will be charged three times the day rate for cars and double the night time rate.\r\nThe increase is being imposed to help pay for the $1.28 billion road widening project, it will cost major transport operators hundreds of thousands of dollars, this will be no doubt passed on to importers and exporters. FJT will introduce these fees once they are known and when they are billed to them in April.\r\n\r\n\u003Cstrong>\u003Cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-4287 alignright\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.pangea-network.com\u002F2017\u002F03\u002FPort-of-Melbourne-500px.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"357\" \u002F>Port infrastructure fees to be increased in Melbourne and introduced in Sydney.\u003C\u002Fstrong>\r\n\r\nFJT has received advice from DP World of their intention to apply a Port Infrastructure Surcharge on all containers handled in and out of their wharf terminals in Melbourne and Sydney. This is to be applicable for any movements in Melbourne on or after April 3rd and Sydney on or after April 17th 2017. DP World is one of the two major stevedores operating wharf terminals and associated infrastructure in Melbourne and Sydney.\r\n\r\nIn Melbourne the Infrastructure Surcharge (Port Access fee) has increased from $3 to $32.60 per container, while in Sydney the per container fee will be introduced at $23.17 for all containers delivered through the terminal (import & export).\r\n\r\nRoad transport operators are considering a new fee to cover the costs of managing this new charge.\r\n\r\nThese charges will be levied via the 1-Stop Vehicle Booking System or via the rail operator, and FJT believes will be reflected as a surcharge to the local transport costs for any movements through DP World.\r\nDP World has blamed the fee increases largely on what they describe as occupancy costs. It would not be unreasonable to expect advice from the other major wharf terminal operator\u002Fstevedore that they also intend to levy a similar charge.\r\n\r\nFJT will update should there be any changes to these fees or introduction by any other wharf operators before their introduction.\r\n\r\nPls. visit www.fjt.com.au for more information.\r\n\r\n\u003Cimg class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2905\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.pangea-network.com\u002F2016\u002F04\u002FFJT-LOGISTICS_LOGO-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"77\" height=\"120\" \u002F>","PANCO Group",[],[],[],[],[29,30],"en","es"]
