Connecticut Truck Tax Continues to Fall Short

According to CTMirror, the Connecticut truck tax continues to underwhelm as it failed to meet the estimated revenue from the Highway Use Tax (HUT).

The Highway Use Tax was passed following the defeat of Gov. Lamont’s numerous tolling proposals for CT highways, and supporters argued the Connecticut truck tax was necessary to bolster the struggling Special Transportation Fund (STF) that pays the transportation infrastructure and public transportation in Connecticut. The Connecticut truck tax is based on the weight and the number of miles it travels.
