in 2009, china began to implement the "fuel tax reform", which is to replace road maintenance fees and other transportation charges with consumption tax on refined oil. since then, it has become a trend to cancel tolls on non-highways, and toll stations in some places have been demolished one after another. however, this trend seems to be changing. recently, some places such as shandong and hubei have begun to restore or build new national highway toll stations to prepare for toll collection, which has attracted widespread attention and heated discussions.
