Victoria is preparing for a major shift in transport costs with the upcoming opening of the West Gate Tunnel, expected in mid-December 2025. Once the tunnel becomes operational, new toll charges will apply to all heavy vehicles using the tunnel and its connected road network.

Industry reports indicate toll increases of up to 40% on top of existing levies. These changes vary by transport provider, as each applies its own pricing structure based on factors like vehicle type, travel time, and delivery zone. This means toll amounts may differ across partners.
