Construction materials may already become more expensive than inflation by the first quarter, writes piacesprofit.hu.

According to the president of the Building Materials Trade Section of the National Association of Construction Contractors, the increased road tolls from January 1, in addition to formerly free roads becoming toll roads will make transportation more expensive.

He also noted that increasing the excise tax on diesel will further raise transportation costs.

He noted that this demands an additional price increase of 2% on average.
