Roads are not free:
they are paid for
by either users (tolls),
or taxpayers (taxes).
|
|
Payment
by the user is the
fairest and best solution
for the financing
of Road Infrastructures.
|
|
Foreigners visiting
Spain, and not subject
to paying taxes in
our country, only
contribute to the
financing of the Infrastructure
they use, if it is
a Toll Facility.
|
|
Toll
Roads offer great
advantages: quality
service, safety, comfort,
time and fuel saving,
maintenance and upkeep
of the road in perfect
conditions, etc..
|
|
Tolls grant earlier
construction and availability
of High Capacity Roads
which generate economic
growth in the country.
|
|
GNP
in Toll Road areas
grows faster than
in those lacking High
Capacity Roads.
|
|
Private financing
(tolls) of Infrastructures
frees Public Funds
that can, and should,
be used to take care
of other social priorities.
|
|
The
State should define
a coherent and consistent
system of Road Infrastructure
financing for the
whole country, avoiding
confusion in Public
Opinion.
|
|
Coexistence of Toll
Roads with free of
toll Expressways does
not represent a coherent
system and is not
followed by any other
country.
|
|
Shadow
Tolls are not real
tolls. The infrastructure
is paid for with taxes
collected from all
Spaniards.
