Recently, the city's transportation work conference revealed that this year, a traffic congestion charging plan for the central city's low-emissions area will be formulated. The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau said during the two sessions that the two modes of congestion charging in low-emission areas in London and Milan are currently being studied. Beijing may adopt one of the modes in combination with the city. Ebike Kit,Mid Motor Kits,Mid Drive Motor,Electric Bike Conversion Kit Changzhou Mayebikes Co.,Ltd , https://www.mayebikes.com
The City has issued and implemented the "2013-2017 Clean Air Action Plan" in the road, the Transportation Committee and the Environmental Protection Agency led the development of low emission zones and traffic congestion fees policy. “Planning low-emission areas, researching and formulating policies for the collection of traffic congestion fees and intelligent vehicle electronic toll identification systems in low-emission areas†will implement congestion charges as early as 2015. At the city's traffic work conference, the city's transportation committee said that it will focus on key road sections and areas, and this year formulate a “central city low-emission zone†traffic congestion charging scheme.
During the two sessions of the city this year, CPPCC members made suggestions to study and promote the regional access of motor vehicles, establish a "low emission zone" in the central city and the radiation corridor connecting the peripheral area and the central city, and control and collect congestion charges through the small passenger car area. Measures such as sewage charges and implementation of strict low emission zone policies. Through this move, the traffic pressure in the central city will be alleviated, and the air pollution caused by the exhaust emissions of old motor vehicles will be reduced.
How to delineate the low emission area, and whether it is combined with the congestion fee? The relevant person in charge of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau revealed that how to formulate a low-emission zone charging plan is currently being discussed with technical units. Many experts advocate the London model of “low emission area and small fee rangeâ€, and some experts have proposed to study the Milan model of “low emission area and congestion fee area overlapâ€. The final model adopted by the city will be fully demonstrated in conjunction with the actual situation in Beijing. However, it is clear that "real-time charging" will be realized whether it is charged by electronic license or by the ETC gantry.
London mode and Milan mode London mode: The London Low Emission Zone is scheduled to be implemented on February 4, 2008, covering every day. The low-emission area and the congestion charge are actually separated. The low-emission area covers almost all roads, and the congestion charge is only in some areas. Old diesel trucks, buses, coaches, large vans and professional heavy-duty vehicles, if they fail to meet EU emission standards, must register with the authorities and pay £200 a day, or a fine of £1,000.
Milan model: In February 2008, Milan piloted a low-emission zone charging policy, and its low-emission zone and congestion-consumption zone were coincident. During the day from Monday to Friday, all motor vehicles entering the Milan restricted zone are charged according to their exhaust emissions. There are a total of 43 entrances in the restricted area. The camera records the license plate number and emission level at the entrance and charges through the vehicle owner's account for up to 10 Euros per day. After the implementation of the policy, the traffic volume in the central area decreased by 19.2%, the road traffic speed increased by 11.3%, and the passenger traffic volume of public transportation increased by 9.7%.
