Some citizens reflected to the Xi'an Evening News "Under the Bell Tower · Minsheng Hotline": Xi'an has implemented a bus for more than 10 years for the elderly over 70 years of age. However, in Beijing, Shenzhen, Qingdao and other cities, the implementation policy is that the elderly over 60 can take the bus for free. In addition, tourist attractions in Lanzhou, Xining and other places, elderly people over the age of 60 can enjoy a half -price ticket policy. They hope that reporters will consult the relevant departments, whether Xi'an can also implement the above policies.

The implementation of public service resources benefiting the people's policy is related to the interests of many people. To this end, the reporter contacted the Xi'an Development and Reform Commission and the Xi'an Health Commission to consult the questions raised by the public.

Regarding whether the elderly over 60 years of age can enjoy half -price tickets for tourist attractions, the staff of the Xi'an Development and Reform Commission replied to report on June 28: The management policy of Shaanxi Province tourist attractions is determined by the Provincial Development and Reform Commission. Or districts and counties with management authority are determined. In other words, the management policy of tourist attractions is determined by the provincial government. Regarding the preferential policies of tourist attractions to the elderly, the former Provincial Price Bureau issued a clear text in 2017: the elderly over 65 years old can visit tourist attractions, and you can enjoy the ticket -free policy with your ID card. If the tourist attractions in Xi'an need to implement the ticket -free policy for the elderly over 60 years old, the province needs to make a unified policy adjustment. Because this policy involves not only preferential services to the elderly, but also the operating problem of tourist attractions. Regarding the issues raised by citizens, the Xi'an Development and Reform Commission will report to the provincial government.

Regarding whether the elderly above 60 can take the bus for free, the reporter learned from many parties and learned that the policy was determined by the aging of the Xi'an Health Commission. On July 1, the staff of the office told reporters that starting in October 2010, Xi'an implemented a free bus policy for the elderly 70 and above. The specific method is that the elderly 70 and above can apply for an elderly card for the bus, and the elderly take the bus freely by this card. Regarding whether the citizens can implement the free bus policy of the elderly over 60 years of age, the Xi'an Health Commission has also received many people's reports. Since 2020, they have made suggestions twice to the municipal government that the municipal government has not been approved for coordinating considerations because of the traffic and financial departments. This year, they will continue to make suggestions to the municipal government.
