Less motorway

Avoiding motorways with a truck in the Netherlands

Sometimes you want to avoid the motorway: to save on the Dutch truck charge (vrachtwagenheffing), to avoid traffic jams or because the destination is close to a provincial road. Tolmijden plans three variants with less and less motorway, always with a truck profile.

Three variants

All three take into account the dimensions and weight of your truck, road signs and closures. So a route over minor roads does not suddenly become a route under a bridge that is too low.

Compare the difference

For each variant you see the distance, the travel time, the charge and the total cost. Click a variant to see it on the map, with road numbers along the route.

Watch the driving time

On minor roads a truck often drives more slowly. Tolmijden calculates with at most 80 km/h. See calculate truck driving time.

Frequently asked questions

Can I drive without any motorway at all?

The "as little motorway as possible" variant avoids the motorway as much as it can. Sometimes a stretch of motorway is unavoidable, for example to cross a river.
