The Department of Transportation is eerily unavoidable. Its job is to punish drivers for using the roads. Therefore, no matter what happens, the department is trying to raise
This bureaucratic intent has no premise and no apparent reason, it is indefinite and commonplace, frightening every day of every month during the years that toll roads have existed in Russia. Last year, the roads in the country were empty. The delivery of goods and the drive of happy people “south” was interrupted by the pandemic – the population stayed at home en masse, reducing the economic performance of the Ministry of Transport.
Therefore, in October 2021, the ministry wrote a draft decree of the government of the Russian Federation on an urgent increase in the cost of living in Russia and acceleration of inflation by raising tolls, but it was met with strong outrage from the Ministry of Economy. A year has passed and the Ministry of Transport has again written a draft resolution, revising tariffs and coming up with incredible reasons.
The cost of building 1 km of roads in the Russian Federation in 2019, according to estimates by the HSE, averaged 58 million rubles and in China 13 million rubles with harder soils, more complex landscapes and more complex logistics.
It turns out that the cost of building long-built roads has risen. They were put into operation a few years ago and retroactively increased their costs by +12%. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the travel costs. A counter question to the indomitable Ministry of Transport – why now, in October? The answer is unique: “in connection with important social and political events.” No explanation. How much should the price go up?
For passenger cars – from 3 ₽ per 1 km to 8 ₽ And for trucks, as explained in the Ministry of Transport, the price increase remains completely painless. “Truck owners will not feel the price increase: the average distance of a trip on heavy truck toll roads is 300 km, and at the maximum new rates, the increase in the cost of a trip will be 804 , which, with the cost of the transported load from 1 million rubles. does not exceed 0.08%. This is a brilliant example of skillful cynicism according to Thomas Carlyle’s formula, according to which “everything can be proved by numbers.” What an optimistic story happened in the Ministry of Transport: it turns out that every truck in Russia carries goods to the “lamb” without fail, and even in both directions.
But there are several pieces of asphalt in the country that are not increasing in price. For example, the M11 “Neva” section from 15 to 58 km and the northern bypass of Odintsovo. The ministry explains that this is because “the terms of the agreement …, approved by the government, cannot be unreasonably revised”. The rest of the asphalt in Russia can rise in price unreasonably.
The “major social and political events” cited by the Ministry of Transport have destroyed roads over the past two years and could depopulate the country in the near future. Therefore, it would make more sense to increase the attractiveness of toll roads by lowering the rate, increasing traffic and ultimately revenue. But the Ministry of Transport is afraid of not being on time, believing that listing the financial results of the year may not happen, and therefore it is necessary to knock money out of the drivers as soon as possible, with maximum busy and as soon as possible. ..
