A new study says Ontario drivers are paying most of road infrastructure costs, to the tune of more than $7.5-billion a year.
The Conference Board of Canada says drivers of cars, minivans, SUVs and light pickup trucks now pay 70 to 90 per cent of the costs through fuel taxes, fees and tolls.
The report notes that municipalities that own and maintain a large part of the infrastructure collect a relatively small portion of that revenues.
