The Ministry of Transport & Logistics has relaxed long-contested rules governing freight transport competence certification. State Minister Denge Boru said the revisions came after repeated consultations with operators and recommendations from a joint committee. The annual requirement for additional trucks has been scrapped, while the maximum trailer age limit was extended from 30 to 50 years. Freight companies welcomed the changes, saying they ease chronic bottlenecks in service delivery. Denge credited operators for their role in national projects such as the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam and pledged government backing through technology-driven services.
