The tolls of the State highways are more expensive up to 3% from today

The rates of the state-dependent highways will rise 1.97% as of this Saturday, except for the AP-7, AP-6, AP-46 and AP-9 which have an additional increase, becoming the total increase up to 2.99%.

As reported by the Ministry of Transport, Mobility and Urban Agenda in a statement, as of January 1, 2022, an increase of 1.97% will be applied to the current rates of state-dependent highways, in accordance, fundamentally , to the growth of the Consumer Price Index (CPI).

Exceptionally, in compliance with specific regulations, the tolls of four highways have an additional increase to cover costs for excess valuation of expropriations or for the execution of works, in which the respective concession companies have incurred, to finance toll bonuses, as well as to compensate for the non-application of rate increases initially planned for reasons of public interest.

It is the AP-7, which connects Alicante and Cartagena, and whose total rise will be 2.99%; the AP-6 Villalba-Adanero, whose rate will rise 2.84%; the AP-46 motorway, in the Alto de Las Pedrizas-Málaga section, whose rate will increase by 2.99%, and on the AP-9, El Ferrol-Portuguese Border, the cost for the user will increase by 2.99 %.

On this highway, the rate increase is carried out, without prejudice to the partial or total discounts on tolls that, based on the concession modifications that have been approved, are currently in force on the highway.

In the case of the highways managed by the State Society of Land Transport Infrastructures (Seittsa), they are not included in this update, so the rates approved in the Agreement of the Council of Ministers of December 14, 2018 remain in force.

In any case, Transportes pointed out that the General State Budgets (PGE) for 2022 include 92.5 million euros for the next year destined to discounts for travelers and goods on highways.
