The nine toll highways rescued by the State earlier this year will be free to drivers during the night, between 0.00 am and 6.00 am, from the 15th of January of 2019, reports Europa Press.

The toll of these roads during the rest of the day will go down in addition to an average of 30% since that date, according to the new rates of these pathways managed by the Ministry of Development, approved by the Council of Ministers.

The highways that will benefit from these measures are the four radials of Madrid, the M-12 Axis Airport that connects the capital with the airport of Barajas, the AP-36 Ocaña-La Roda, which connects Cartagena and Vera, the Ring road of Alicante, and the AP-41 Madrid-Toledo.

In the latter case, the changes in the toll will begin to be implemented in time to be rescued and taken over by Development, is expected early next year, at the end of its bankruptcy process.

These pathways represent the 20% of the motorway network of payment of the country. It is the motorways of more recent construction, which at the end of 2012, in the middle of a crisis, began to fail in cascade, and at the beginning of this year finally rescued Building. They are currently managed by this Ministry, through its public company Seittsa.

under the new tariffs approved by the Government, these rebates will be added to those that are articulated for the most common users of the roads.

With this measure, it is intended to "improve the traffic of these pathways and encourage its use, given that it is infrastructure currently used very little", according to said the minister of Development, José Luis Ábalos.

the Promotion is confident that, despite the reduction, the increase of users to increase revenue from the highways. However, it was revealed that the new tariffs will be reviewed within six months by the Delegate Commission for Economic Affairs.

These motorways rescued and in the hands of the State will have its own tariff system, different from the rest of the network of toll roads, which continue to be managed by private companies, in which, on the contrary, the toll will rise 1,67% from the next 1 January.

The rise of the tolls of the highways is updated annually through the application of a formula that the Government and the sector on concessionary terms agreed in 2002, that has the CPI and the traffic to their main variables.

In terms of the nine pathways ravines, which add up to about 510 kilometres in length, despite the rise in users of the past four years, have not recovered fully from the crash of traffic that suffered in the crisis, one of the causes of your bankruptcy, along with the extra costs of the expropriations.

At the end of the last month of October, according to the official data of the Promotion, some of these pathways were falls in traffic of between 1.01% and 22%. In the case of the radial R-3 Madrid-Arganda R-5 Madrid-Navalcarnero and the Ocaña-La Roda.

The rest, despite win users, do not have a high intensity of traffic, ranging from 1.157 vehicles on average travel through it every day for the Madrid-Toledo and 22.125 that taken daily the motorway that links Madrid and the airport, the most used among the creeks.

The average traffic of the set of 2.550-kilometre sum payment network is 20.141 daily users, while the most used, the linking Montmeló and El Papiol, posts 116.838 cars per day.
