The State Council promulgated the “Regulations on the Administration of Toll Roads†pointing out the need to control the scale of the development of toll roads. According to Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 25th, State Council Decree No. 417 issued the Regulations on the Administration of Toll Roads (hereinafter referred to as the “Regulationsâ€), which will be held in 2004. It will be implemented on November 1. The "Regulations" stipulates that road development should be based on non-toll roads and appropriate development of toll roads. All highways donated by government investment or social organizations or individuals don't collect vehicle tolls. Xinhua News Agency reporters yesterday interviewed relevant responsible comrades of the State Council Legal Affairs Office and the Ministry of Communications regarding the relevant provisions of the Regulations. Arbitrage of charges has aggravated the social burden. By the end of last year, the total mileage of toll roads in the country accounted for about 8.1% of the country's total road mileage. However, some problems that cannot be overlooked have also emerged in the development: First, the toll collection sites are not properly set up and the number of sites has affected the efficiency of traffic; second, the fees are higher, and some places even exceed the social capacity, increasing the The third is that some toll stations do not withdraw at the end of their lives, and unauthorized extension of the toll period will increase the social burden. Fourth, the transfer of rights and interests of road tolls is not standardized, and there is the problem of unauthorized approval and transfer. Some of the transfers are not carried out according to law. The assessment resulted in the loss of state-owned assets. It is necessary to formulate the "Regulations" and strengthen supervision and regulation of the behaviors of the toll highway operators and managers through legal means. The essence of the Regulations stipulates in Article 3 of the “Regulations†for the control of toll roads that road development should be based on non-toll roads and appropriate development of toll roads. The speed and number of toll roads should be limited to the appropriate range. The reason why this provision was made is mainly based on the following considerations: First, highways are public welfare facilities. Theoretically, they should all be provided free of charge by the government. Since the reform and opening up, China’s government has introduced a policy of “loan-building roads, reimbursement of loansâ€. This is only a specific policy that the government has adopted in the face of insufficient financial resources and huge pressure on road construction. With the gradual enhancement of the government’s financial strength, the road network is gradually perfecting, and the development scale of toll highways is controlled. The implementation of non-toll highways as the main policy and appropriate development of toll highways is a matter of course. Secondly, from the standpoint of the nature of the highway, highways are public goods and have strong public welfare. This feature determines that its development can only be based on non-toll roads, toll roads to supplement. If the scope of any toll road is arbitrarily expanded, the social benefits will be affected. Highway development should be based on non-toll roads and proper development of toll roads. This is an important guiding principle for the formulation of this "Regulation" and is also the essence of this "Regulation". The term of fees shall not exceed 25 years. The "Regulations" stipulates that the setting up of toll stations must be examined and approved by the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government. The standards for examination and approval are: highways and other enclosed toll highways, except for the entrances and exits at both ends. It is generally not allowed to set up toll stations on the main line. On the same main line of non-closed toll roads, the distance between adjacent toll stations shall not be less than 50 kilometers. The "Regulations" stipulates that the time limit for charging must be reviewed and approved by the people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government. The standard for examination and approval is that the maximum time limit for the repayment of government highways shall not exceed 15 years, and the longest period for provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall not exceed 20. Years; the maximum period of charge for operating highways shall not exceed 25 years, and the longest period for the central and western provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities shall not exceed 30 years. The "Regulations" also stipulates that roads with technical grades below Grade 2 (including Grade 2) shall not be charged except in the Midwest. Refusal to maintain roads, ordered to stop charges "Regulations" stipulate that: After the toll road is completed, it must be qualified by experience before it can collect vehicle tolls and it is not allowed to construct while collecting fees; the operators of toll roads are required to follow the standards and norms stipulated by the state, Daily inspection and maintenance of toll highways shall be carried out to ensure that the highways are in a good technical condition and provide excellent services for traffic vehicles and personnel; request toll highway operators to set up bulletin boards to publish relevant matters of charges and accept social supervision; the number of crossings shall be Meet the need for rapid passage of vehicles; do not arbitrarily increase the charging standards, and may not add or collect any other fees in addition to the standard; stipulate that the toll-charging time limit expires; the government repays the loans before the expiry of the charging period and has already repaid loans and fund-raising. In case of a payment, the fee must be terminated and the government should make an announcement; the road information for the toll road must be disclosed and accepted by the public. In recent years, some toll highway operators have paid heavy attention to the maintenance of fees and charges, and cannot guarantee the service level of toll highways. The social response has been strong. Therefore, the "Regulations" stipulate that: If a toll highway operator fails to carry out toll road maintenance in accordance with the technical specifications and operational procedures stipulated by the competent department of transportation under the State Council, the competent department of communications of the people's government of the province, autonomous region or municipality directly under the central government shall order it to make corrections; , ordered to stop charging.
