“The SOLAS modification has been underneath improvement in IMO for 4 years, so it’s worrying that at this late stage ship brokers, forwarders and shippers in lots of international locations nonetheless lack applicable measures to conform.

“As a supporter of the accurate verification of container weights since its initial proposal, FONASBA’s members have been proactive in working with their national authorities and the container transport chain to ensure the measures are in place in good time, and it is frustrating that so little progress has been made in some member states,” he mentioned.

There was higher information in that the majority the weighbridges in international locations coated within the survey have been already licensed by authorities, however there’s nonetheless concern over the variety of weighbridges and their capability to deal with present commerce flows.

The survey mentioned: “Where these [weighbridges] exist however, many are reported as being out of service or in need of overhaul. Another common comment is that there are not enough weighbridges available to meet the anticipated demand after implementation.”

A major variance in container weighing charges was additionally reported, with plenty of respondents advising that no cost might be levied, whereas elsewhere charges vary from $3/€3.50 to as a lot as $225/€200, a few of which incorporates haulage and different extra prices.
