Is the highway free on October 1st?
1 Answers
Highways are free on October 1st, as they are during all statutory holidays, but not all vehicle types are exempt from tolls. According to China's regulations on toll-free highway travel during statutory holidays, the exemption applies to passenger vehicles with no more than 7 seats and gasoline-powered motorcycles allowed on highways. Trucks and passenger vehicles with 8 or more seats are not exempt and must pay tolls. The toll-free highways on October 1st comply with the Highway Law and the Regulations on the Administration of Toll Highways, covering all legally approved toll highways (including toll bridges and tunnels). However, whether airport highways are toll-free is determined by the provincial (regional or municipal) governments.
