Abstract:The charging modes for the compensated use of urban underground utility tunnel are discussed in detail by using the theoretical research and case analysis method. Relying on the underground utility tunnel project in IT Avenue of Chengdu, and referring to the relevant parameters of the pilot utility tunnels in Riyue Avenue, Chengluo Avenue and the section into city of Chengdu-Chongqing Expressway, the compensated use fee of utility tunnel is calculated, in which the entrance fee and daily maintenance fee for utility tunnel are calculated by the direct burial cost method and the space ratio method respectively. The charging standards of entrance fee and daily maintenance fee for underground utility tunnel in Chengdu are established. The study results show that the charging standards of entrance fee and daily maintenance fee for utility tunnel in Chengdu calculated and obtained by this method are more suitable for the actual construction and operation and maintenance of the pipeline, and more acceptable to all pipeline units.
