Toll fees for the Shenzhong Passage
Draw up two sets of fee standard hearing plans
The hearing was convened by the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission, and a total of 24 hearing participants attended, and the two hearing participants who did not attend submitted written opinions and entrusted them to read them out on their behalf.
On the basis of cost supervision and investigation and research, combined with the opinions of all parties, the Guangdong Provincial Department of Transportation, together with the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the Guangdong Provincial Department of Finance, in accordance with the principle of compensation cost and social benefit optimization, formulated two sets of hearing plans for the vehicle toll charging standards of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor.
Hearing Option 1:
The toll standard of the whole line of the project is 66 yuan/standard train, and the unified model classification method and toll coefficient of the province's expressway are implemented, among which, the toll coefficient of the third class of passenger cars and the fourth class of passenger cars is implemented according to 65% of the current coefficient, and the charging standard is 86 yuan/train.
Hearing Option 2:
The toll standard of the whole line of the project is 66 yuan/standard train, and the unified model classification method and charging coefficient of the province's expressway are implemented; among them, the toll coefficient of large passenger cars with more than 40 seats and six and above trucks (including special professional vehicles with more than six categories) is implemented according to 80% of the current coefficient, and the charging standard is 106 yuan/vehicle and 216 yuan/vehicle respectively.
Comparing the two options, the biggest difference is the toll pricing for Class 3 and 4 buses and Class 6 trucks. Among them, the pricing of the third and fourth types of passenger cars in the first plan is 86 yuan, while the second plan is 132 yuan and 106 yuan respectively, and the six types of trucks in the first plan are priced at 270 yuan, while the second plan is 216 yuan.
Yuan Weizhang, a consumer participant in the hearing and a staff member of the Guzhen Urban Renewal and Construction Service Center in Zhongshan City, believes that the second plan will give preferential policies to six types of trucks, and Zhongshan is in urgent need of economic development opportunities. "Zhongshan Ancient Town has a great demand for foreign trade, and after the opening of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Channel, it can meet the volume of logistics and transportation, and Zhongshan will usher in a new wave of industrial development. ”
The majority of the participants in the hearing preferred option one
The program needs to be further improved
Shenzhen Satellite TV & One Shenzhen client reporter learned at the hearing site that the hearing participants affirmed the reasonableness and feasibility of the hearing plan for the vehicle toll charging standard of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Channel, and most of them preferred the first plan, and also put forward suggestions for further improving the plan.
It mainly includes the following aspects:
❖ One is about the charging standard. Some of the hearing participants felt that the fee standard was more reasonable, and that the fee standard could be appropriately lowered, or some preferential policies could be introduced.
❖ The second is about differentiated charges. Some of the participants in the hearing suggested the implementation of differentiated fees, according to different vehicle types, traffic periods, traffic times, etc., to formulate different charging standards, for vehicles commuting between the two places to reach a certain frequency can implement monthly and annual passes.
❖ The third is about the dynamic adjustment of the charging standard. Some of the hearing participants believed that the current traffic volume was a forecast and that there may be significant changes in the future. If there is a large fluctuation in traffic flow in the next 15 years, it is recommended to make full use of big data to dynamically adjust the charging standard on the basis of evaluation.
❖ The fourth is about the passage of trucks. From the perspective of reducing logistics and transportation costs, some hearing participants believe that certain toll concessions should be given to large and medium-sized trucks; from the perspective of safety, some hearing participants believe that the issue of how large trucks can pass through the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor should be studied, including the adoption of certain traffic restriction measures for large trucks.
In addition, some of the participants in the hearing also put forward suggestions to further reduce the toll standard or even free of charge for cross-city buses, and effectively reduce the travel costs of the public, especially low-consumption groups.
Nie Wei, an expert and scholar participant at the hearing and an associate professor at the School of Economics of Shenzhen University, believes that the opening of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor will play a very big role in promoting the exchange of people and goods between the east and west banks of the Pearl River.
Nie Wei said that for residents who travel between Shenzhen and China for a long time and at a high frequency, he hopes to give corresponding preferential treatment and play a role in the economic development of the entire region.
After this hearing, the Guangdong Provincial Development and Reform Commission will summarize the opinions of the hearing and submit it to the Guangdong Provincial Department of Transportation, which will further improve the vehicle toll pricing plan of the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Corridor in conjunction with relevant departments, and report it to the provincial government for approval according to the procedures for implementation.
