Before the end of this year, North China and the Yangtze River Delta provinces 5 plus six provinces of Hunan, Shaanxi, Liaoning Province will implement 14 ETC (electronic toll highway) regional networking. The end of September next year, the country will basically achieve ETC networking. So - if you have an ETC card, next year we can navigate the national highway.
Transport Ministry spokesman Xu Chengguang has revealed that before the end of this year, North China and the Yangtze River Delta provinces 5 plus 6 provinces of Hunan, Shaanxi, Liaoning Province, 14 to achieve regional networking. The end of September 2015, China's basic national network of ETC then, China will build the world's longest highway network ETC system.
And compared to the traditional manual toll, ETC will undoubtedly improve highway traffic efficiency, saving labor costs of enterprise management. For regular car owners who run high-speed, ETC can relieve congestion speed, saving travel costs? What will be the implementation of the problem?
You can alleviate congestion?
Which most blocked highway? None other than non-toll - often drive long distances drivers should have such an experience. Like Beijing, "the name" of Du Jiakan toll station, has become the capital of a big "block point."
On the highway, often far away from the toll station, vehicles began to line up, one a charge, lift lever, slow traffic. In most edge of the ETC toll station passage, it is a different story: in single file through the vehicle, almost did not stay.
"Practice has proved that an ETC lane corresponds to 5 manual toll lanes. By the time the average toll from 14 seconds down to 3 seconds. To alleviate highway congestion, improve traffic efficiency effect is obvious." Ministry of Transport and Road Network Center ETC Center Wang Gang said.
His calculations: If the car to reduce the transit time of about 10 seconds, then 100 could be reduced by about 16 minutes, 1000 is two and a half hours. Especially for larger toll in terms of traffic, congestion mitigation effect is more obvious.
Like the earliest implementation of the national highway holidays free time, but also the vehicle through the issuing station, one of the reasons the highway toll station congestion. Thereafter, toll free crossings on the non-issuing lift lever to release congestion was significantly reduced, in fact, equivalent to the efficiency of the station over the ETC system.
"Japan ETC transactions accounted for 90% of all highway traffic volume, over 100 vehicles have 90 done by ETC, it is very efficient. In China, only seven to eight percent, about 30% developed provinces , the gap is still large. "Gang said.
How much can save travel costs?
In addition to increasing capacity, saving travel time outside, ETC can also significantly reduce people's travel costs and logistics costs society as a whole, to achieve energy conservation.
Wang Gang introduction, labor costs compared to the traditional model, ETC can save nearly 87% of the expansion of toll fees, reduced by about 20 per cent of the cost of labor and services.
At the same time, the average fuel consumption of the vehicle can be reduced by 20%; carbon dioxide emissions by about 50%, about 70% reduction in carbon monoxide. In addition, with the improvement of laws and regulations and freight markets, ETC application if the car arrives, will greatly improve the efficiency of logistics and transport.
According to the Ministry of Public Security Traffic Management Bureau statistics, the country's vehicle has more than 260 million, the number of people driving nearly 300 million people, will continue to grow rapidly in the future.
If calculated according to the above figures, 260 million annual energy saving is not a small figure. Of course, car owners often run high-speed, the use of ETC cards accepted through high-speed toll station will generally make a 95 fold, will reduce travel costs to a certain extent.
Associate Dean of Public Administration of Renmin University of China Xu Guang Jian said that in the ETC system is more developed in Japan, to encourage people to use ETC, the Japanese government will be to assemble electronic toll user fees system onboard a vehicle to provide subsidies to reduce the additional burden on the user. Secondly, highway management companies to develop a variety of toll incentives, benefits to the user.
It is reported that Japanese ETC use user specified payment, not only can get 3% to 8% discount, at different times and different sections can also enjoy different ranges of discounts, some period of time discount rate even reached 50%.
How to protect the system compatibility and security of user information?
A big gap between the future development of space is also large. At present, China has 26 provinces and autonomous regions to build ETC lanes 7600, more than 13 million users ETC, all kinds of more than 13,000 service outlets. What the future process of implementation problems in the ETC?
Users reflect the current ETC devices are installed and then to the car, are battery-powered. But with three to five years battery no electricity, but also to replace the battery, very inconvenient.
In this regard, Wang Gang said that the face of the ETC market, some car manufacturers have contacted the center of the road network, hope to achieve ETC system, "front-loading" is when consumers buy a car, the car has been installed ETC. If implemented before installation, the user can use the car to the ETC device power supply, do not replace the battery problem.
"Of course, this work is not so simple, involving a change in the distribution system, we need to do a lot of work in this area. The vehicle at the time of production, we do not know what to sell to the provinces, while the current distribution system is based on the car's provinces based. This is the first national network to achieve ETC. "Gang said.
In addition, with the rapid development of mobile Internet, many provinces provide the APP service, but must ensure that users of information security, user information collection, security and multimedia applications as well as a lot of work to do.
Director of Network Management at the Ministry of Transportation Highway Road Taohan Xiang said that such a large-scale national ETC network, involving compatible systems, including vehicles and ETC card system compatible, users across all bank card compatibility and upgrade, these problems are gradually being resolved.
