Can Motorcycles Access Highways in Jiangsu?
1 Answers
No. Below is the relevant information: Policy: Sun Wenjian, spokesperson for the Ministry of Transport, stated: As of January 1, 2020, whether motorcycles can access highways will still follow the current policy. Provinces such as Jiangsu, Jiangxi, and Shandong explicitly prohibit motorcycles from entering highways. Starting from January 1, 2020, after the removal of provincial toll stations on national highways, the national highway network will be unified. Whether motorcycles will be allowed on highways is currently under study by relevant authorities, and the policy will be announced as soon as it is finalized. Relevant Regulations: In May 2019, the Ministry of Transport issued the 'Toll Highway Vehicle Classification Standards,' which categorizes motorcycles as Class 1 vehicles. The new standard only classifies vehicle types from the perspective of highway tolls, with motorcycles being one of the vehicle types. Adjustments to vehicle traffic management policies, including how various motor vehicles such as motorcycles access highways, as well as specific issues like certain highways restricting specific vehicles in some regions, should be implemented in accordance with the 'Road Traffic Safety Law' and other relevant laws and regulations.
