Is the Highway Free on Mid-Autumn Festival?
1 Answers
Highway tolls are not waived during the Mid-Autumn Festival; normal charges apply. Below is relevant information regarding highway toll policies during holidays: 1. According to the "Implementation Plan for Exempting Small Passenger Vehicles from Toll Fees on Major Holidays," highway toll exemptions apply during four national statutory holidays: Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day, and National Day, as well as any consecutive holidays officially designated by the State Council. 2. The 2020 Mid-Autumn Festival was exceptional because the 15th day of the eighth lunar month coincided with October 1st on the Gregorian calendar, overlapping with National Day. Consequently, the 2020 Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day shared an 8-day holiday period, during which highway tolls were waived.
