How many days is the May 1st Expressway free? When is free time?

This year's May Day holiday is coming soon, and compared with last year's, this year's May Day holiday has increased to four days, which makes many car owners planning to travel by car ready to move again. So, how many free days is the May Day holiday? Is it free for three days as usual or something else? The latest news has come out. Have you seen it?

On April 28, Wu Chungeng, spokesman of the Ministry of transport, introduced that the four-day long and small holidays of May Day holiday this year will be free of charge. Toll roads are free of charge for vehicles carrying passengers under 7 SEATS (including 7 seats), including motorcycles allowed to run on ordinary toll roads. Such as 8 seat business car, MPV, truck and other models are charged as usual.

In addition, there is a special 5-seat family car that can't pass for free. It's the pickup truck we usually see. Although pickup truck has five seats, it belongs to truck category in theory. In addition to the driver's cab, there is a body behind the pickup truck. Because it has a truck compartment, its certificate registration is also a truck operating vehicle, not a non operating private car. Therefore, it is normal for pick-up trucks to charge at high speed in free time. What's the free time of May 1st Expressway? Why do you still charge for this five seat car?

The Ministry of transport will increase the free special passage and adopt the fast passing mode of "no card issuing at the entrance, and release by lifting the pole at the exit", so as to improve the traffic efficiency and ensure the vehicles to pass through the toll station quickly, stably and orderly. Strengthen the real-time monitoring of the key areas such as the sections easy to be congested and slow moving, toll stations, important inter provincial channels, highway service areas with large passenger flow, timely release the real-time road conditions to the public, and focus on the prevention, prediction and early warning of severe weather such as heavy rain, strong wind, dense fog, etc.

In addition, the Ministry of transport will also strengthen the maintenance inspection of key sections such as long bridges and tunnels, continuous long downhill, high side slope, etc., try to avoid the arrangement of maintenance operations during the peak period of traffic, and reduce the impact of construction on the normal traffic of the highway.
