重整隧道資源刻不容緩
這幾天鬧得最哄哄的莫過於東隧在有盈餘下計畫瘋狂加價百分之六十七。試想,駕車人士日後使用東隧每程來回便需多付幾十元,實在有點連「一餐飯錢」也被強搶的感覺。對於職業司機更是首當其衝,變相減薪。
東隧今次不顧企業的社會責任,牟取暴利,固然令市民憤怒。但件事帶來的啟示,是以往政府在經濟蓬勃時所訂下的營運條款已經不合時宜。有誰會料到昨日看似合理的百分之十五准許利潤,今天竟是企業「殘民以自肥」的工具?其實要解決三隧收費和流量不均的問題,不外乎四個方案,包括:第一,政府購回東隧及西隧的專營權。但現時東隧的專營權還有十一年才屆滿,西隧則還有十八年,單是如何計算收購價已夠頭痛。有學者估計所需資金大約一百四十億元,但以目前政府財政仍然緊絀的情況來看,這又談何容易?
第二,政府出售紅隧給東隧及西隧財團。但我們又是否願意見到政府再來一幕「利益輸送」,被單一財團壟斷海隧市場,令它以後可肆意加價?
第三,由政府與東隧及西隧財團合組一間新公司,以公私合營的運作模式調控各隧道的收費和交通流量。
第四,將紅隧注入一間由政府全資擁有的「隧道及橋樑管理局」,在上市集資後再收購東隧及西隧,並重新訂立一套機制,調整三條海隧收費。
就以上各種構想,我認為第四個方案最為可行。如此安排,政府便可把三條海隧統一管理,既可提高營運效益,善用道路資源,也可透過調整各隧道收費以解決交通流量失衡的問題。再者,市民又有機會直接投資優質的公共基建,做到平衡政府、財團、投資者及隧道使用者的利益,一舉數得。
為文當日,當局說要一年時間研究如何解決海隧的車流問題。面對民怨沸騰,廖秀冬仍以一貫慢三拍的態度處理,相信又會成為另一個「可加可減」車費機制的翻版。
