Changyong Expressway will be toll-free starting November 1, 2025

Official confirmation states that the first expressway in Hunan Province—the Changyong Expressway—will stop charging tolls from November 1, 2025. This means that from that date onward, no toll fees will be required when traveling on this road. Construction of the Changyong Expressway began in 1993 and it was completed and opened to traffic on December 28, 1994. It is 27 kilometers long, starting from the Changsha Toll Station in the west and ending at the Yong'an Toll Station in Yong'an Town, Liuyang City, in the east. The expressway connects Huanghua Airport and downtown Changsha, serving as an important route linking Changsha County and Liuyang City. As Hunan’s first expressway, its completion ended the province’s history of having no expressways, marking a milestone. For travelers and residents frequently commuting between downtown Changsha and Huanghua Airport, or between Changsha County and Liuyang City, the toll-free Changyong Expressway will significantly reduce travel costs and make journeys more comfortable and enjoyable. Start planning your trip now and enjoy the convenience and comfort brought by this toll-free expressway!
