The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine intends to additionally finance road safety in 2018 at the expense of excise duties on imported petroleum products, Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman said at a government meeting on Friday.
“We have now found a mechanism for additional financing road safety due to excise duties on imported fuel … We must make road safety the highest priority next year when building roads,” he said.
The prime minister also noted the Road Fund will start work from January 1, 2018.
