So, according to him, the funds that drivers transfer for travel on high-speed roads are aimed not only at repaying investments to concessionaires under the relevant agreements, but also at the maintenance of highways, infrastructure and toll booths. And here we already have to take into account inflation, because literally everything rises in price. And as a result, two options remain: “ask for money from the state or from users.”

– As for transponders, we, a state-owned company, consider the economic effect and understand that by giving discounts, we cannot return (to concessionaires – approx. red.) the money that was taken. Therefore, we were forced to remove them, leaving only the loyalty program. But never say “never” – we always think about users and understand that the cost of travel, for example to the Black Sea, is tangible for many, – explained the head of Avtodor.

During the discussion of the pricing policy, Mr. Petushenko was also asked about electric vehicles, which can run on “scarves” for free until the end of this year. He did not say that he was waiting for the owners of “green” cars after the completion of the experiment, but he very subtly hinted that the extension of benefits was unlikely: he cited China as an example, where there are quite a few “trains” and there are no such preferences.
