ROAD SAFETY (DRIVERS) AND (VEHICLES) AMENDMENT (FEES) REGULATIONS 2016 (SR NO 50 OF 2016) - REG 17

    (1)     Take the amount shown as the Arterial Roads Total ( ART ) for the category of expenditure.

    (2)     This amount needs to be adjusted to take account of the most appropriate weighting of methods of measuring road use and to isolate the heavy vehicle component of the road use which is achieved by taking the following 5 substeps—

        (a)     substep 1—take account of the vehicle kilometres travelled parameter and the heavy vehicle component as follows—

              (i)     multiply ART by the percentage shown in the Cost Allocation Rules Table for the category with respect to VKT;

              (ii)     if the result is zero (or the amount is deemed to be zero because no percentage is shown), go to subparagraph (iv) below;

              (iii)     if the result is not zero, multiply the result by the HV% shown in the Road Usage Parameters Table for Arterial for VKT;

              (iv)     the result is Arterial Interim Amount 1 ( AIA(1) ).

        (b)     substep 2—take account of the passenger car unit-km parameter and the heavy vehicle component as follows—

              (i)     multiply ART by the percentage shown in the Cost Allocation Rules Table for the category with respect to PCU-km;

              (ii)     if the result is zero (or the amount is deemed to be zero because no percentage is shown), go to subparagraph (iv) below;

              (iii)     if the result is not zero, multiply the result by the HV% shown in the Road Usage Parameters Table for Arterial for PCU-km;

              (iv)     the result is Arterial Interim Amount 2 ( AIA(2) ).

        (c)     substep 3—take account of the equivalent standard axle-km parameter and the heavy vehicle component as follows—

              (i)     multiply ART by the percentage shown in the Cost Allocation Rules Table for the category with respect to ESA-km;

              (ii)     if the result is zero (or the amount is deemed to be zero because no percentage is shown), go to subparagraph (iv) below;

              (iii)     if the result is not zero, multiply the result by the HV% shown in the Road Usage Parameters Table for Arterial for ESA-km;

              (iv)     the result is Arterial Interim Amount 3 ( AIA(3) ).

        (d)     substep 4—take account of the average gross mass-km parameter and the heavy vehicle component as follows—

              (i)     multiply ART by the percentage shown in the Cost Allocation Rules Table for the category with respect to AGM-km;

              (ii)     if the result is zero (or the amount is deemed to be zero because no percentage is shown), go to subparagraph (iv) below;

              (iii)     if the result is not zero, multiply the result by the HV% shown in the Road Usage Parameters Table for Arterial for AGM-km;

              (iv)     the result is Arterial Interim Amount 4 ( AIA(4) ).

        (e)     substep 5—add up the interim amounts as follows—

              (i)     add together AIA(1), AIA(2), AIA(3) and AIA(4);

              (ii)     the result is the Total Arterial Amount.
