What is TMF service fee?

The fee structure is designed to be fair and transparent, taking into account various factors such as the severity of congestion, the duration of the disruption, and the number of affected parties. This ensures that the burden of the fee is distributed equitably.

The primary objective of the TMF is to compensate for the additional expenses incurred when workers are required to extend their work hours beyond the standard schedule. This is necessary to ensure smooth operations and minimize delays that could lead to significant losses for businesses.

Congestion at terminals often leads to a backlog of activities, which, in turn, necessitates the deployment of extra manpower to clear the jam. By imposing the TMF, the costs associated with this additional labor force are shared among those responsible for causing the congestion.

The implementation of the TMF promotes efficiency and encourages responsible behavior among terminal users. It acts as a deterrent, reducing the likelihood of intentional or negligent actions that could contribute to congestion.

The Traffic Mitigation Fee (TMF) is a financial charge imposed in scenarios where a terminal experiences congestion. This fee serves a crucial purpose in alleviating the economic burden associated with operational disruptions caused by overcrowding.
