Will there be highway tolls during the Dragon Boat Festival in 2018? Why?
Introduction: The Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon, and many people choose to travel during the holiday. So will the expressway be free during the 2018 Dragon Boat Festival? The first noon of the fifth lunar month, in midsummer, is a good day for climbing Shunyang. Let us welcome the Dragon Boat Festival and experience the 2018 Dragon Boat Festival together on the Fortune Teller website. The 2018 Dragon Boat Festival Expressway will not be free and will be charged as usual.
According to the document "Implementation Plan for Exemption of Tolls for Small Passenger Cars on Major Holidays" issued by the Ministry of Transport of the People's Republic of China, the policy of free highway access for small passenger cars with 7 seats or less (including 7 seats) will only be implemented on the four important holidays of the Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day and National Day, but not New Year's Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival.
From this we can see that the Dragon Boat Festival is not among the toll-free holidays, and the expressway will not be free during the Dragon Boat Festival in 2018.
In addition, only passenger cars with seven seats or less can enjoy the free highway access policy. Other vehicles such as large buses and trucks are not eligible, so these vehicles still have to pay traffic tolls during the free period. Today’s highways are no longer entirely invested in by the state. Even if they are invested by the state, they are divided into different local or departmental investment entities.
The current situation of China's expressways can only be said that most of them are invested by the state, but some of them are invested by entities of various natures. Due to the different investment entities, almost all expressways will get part of the funds from bank loans, so they need to repay the loans and make profits. At the same time, in order to ensure the normal operation of the expressways, funds are also needed. Therefore, most of the expressways are now toll-charging. The toll-free time is based on the time when the vehicle leaves the toll lane at the highway exit. For ordinary roads, the time is based on the time when the vehicle passes through the toll lane of the toll station. In other words, if you enter the expressway during the toll period and exit the expressway during the free period, you will not be charged. Conversely, if you enter the highway during the free period and exit the highway during the toll period, you will be charged.
