港鐵(00066.HK)7月起車費八折 為期六個月料損失16億元
阿思達克 04-09 09:37
政府公布推出第二輪1,375億元防疫抗疫基金措施,建議港鐵(00066.HK)於今年7月1日至明年1月1日六個月期間,提供20%車費折扣,政府將以50:50配對方式協助港鐵公司提供上述折扣,估計額外開支為8億元,視乎乘客量預計逾500萬人次受惠。

港鐵表示,相關車費折扣為現時3.3%扣減的加強版,除了增加車費折扣給所有使用八達通的乘客外,所有全月通乘客在購買月票時亦一律可節省100元。五款全月通加強版及港鐵都會票於今年7月至12月期間的六個月內,每次購買均會獲得100元扣減。

在新措施下,港鐵預算收入損失約16億元,實際金額取決於該六個月內的實際乘客量,政府將承擔實際總收入損失的一半,上限為8億元,其餘收入損失由港鐵自行承擔。港鐵行政總裁金澤培指出,過去數月在票價和商場及車站租金方面已推出多項紓緩方案,因應社會面對疫情帶來持續嚴峻的挑戰、平衡多方考慮,以及與政府磋商後制定出新措施,期待疫情緩和後香港經濟可以重拾正軌。

政府亦將於上述六個月期間,暫時將「公共交通費用補貼計劃」的每月公共交通開支水平由400元放寬至200元,涉及的額外開支由2020-21年度上述計劃的預算開支承擔,毋須額外撥款,將於今年7月實施臨時措施,讓市民可由8月中起領取按放寬後每月公共交通開支水平計算的補貼,預計約380萬名市民受惠。
