Chapter 0970 Whether to remove the red and green street lights
The operation of new energy electric bicycles on the sea market, greatly alleviating the generation of haze, there are five million people using electric bicycles, which is equivalent to reducing 5 million old-fashioned gasoline cars, which can not but be said to be a huge progress, but the problem is coming, that is, the peak of commuting, a large number of electric bicycles on the road, it is bound to cause congestion. Especially when crossing the traffic light, it is not that the red light stops and the green light goes, but that the number of people accumulates to a certain extent, and they rush to the top of the road, and they don't care about the control of the traffic light at all.
This is a serious problem, it seems that the road to and from work is more congested, where the matter is reflected in Longxiao, Longxiao held an expert meeting to discuss this problem, and it is also said that the program of electric vehicles is equipped with traffic light control, as long as there is a red light, it will automatically stop. Many people felt that this was also a good idea, but representatives from the Long Group had a different opinion.
Because the electric bicycle has two gears, one is automatic and the other is manual, if the user uses manual riding, it is still impossible to control, therefore, this method is not very good. Therefore, some people proposed to learn from the experience of Quancheng, build viaducts, and remove all traffic lights.
In Qilu Quancheng, the removal of traffic lights is only at 225 major intersections, and other smaller intersections still use traffic light official positions. Therefore, some people proposed that in the entire Haishi market, remove all the traffic lights, the implementation of the design of cross overpasses, this is a huge project, the entire Haishi has nearly 5,000 large and small roads, there will be hundreds of thousands of intersections, if all the implementation of the traffic line, it will be a big problem, that is, the construction period is very long, will also bring inconvenience to the public.
Long Xiao let people use a computer to simulate, it is impossible to implement all the interchanges, only to build interchanges on the avenue, this method is still a model with Qilu Quancheng, and only in this way can it be successfully implemented, otherwise it is empty talk.
There was no agreement on the matter, so it was put on hold, and one day, Long Xiao was reviewing the documents in the office, and Shen Dongping came in: "Mayor Long, there is an old gentleman who wants to see you, are you willing to see him?" ”。 Long Xiao asked, "Who is he?" Shen Dongping: "He said that he is an expert in urban management and has great academic insights on traffic management? When Long Xiao heard this, he felt that this person was a pedant, and he needed talents in this area, so he said: "You let him in."
After a while, an old man came in, with gray hair, but the roots were dense, without the slightest trace of hair loss, with a high eye, and at first glance he was a learned person. When Long Xiao saw it, he quickly stood up. The old man asked, "Are you Mayor Long?" Long Xiao: "I'm Long Xiao, what are you looking for me?" ”。
The person said: "My name is Ma Buchu, I am studying urban management, and I have a little humble opinion on urban transportation, I want to talk to you, is Mayor Long willing to listen?" ”。 As soon as Long Xiao heard this, he remembered that Mr. Ma Buchu was an old professor at Shanghai Jiaotong University, and he was very famous and had a certain reputation in the world academic circles.
Long Xiao laughed: "It's Mr. Ma, I know you, you have a great reputation in the world bachelor's world, I have always wanted to visit you, but I haven't had time, I didn't expect you, you are here, please take a seat, are you smoking, or drinking tea?" ”。
Ma Bu was very polite when he saw Long Xiao for the first time, but he was very happy: "I quit smoking in my early years, I don't smoke anymore, just drink tea." Long Xiao personally made a cup of Pu'er for Mr. Ma and handed it to Ma Buchu: "Ma Lao, this is Pu'er tea, I don't know if you like it or not."
Ma Buchu took the tea, tasted it carefully, and praised: "In the end, it is the mayor, that is, there are good things, your tea is Pu'er thirty years ago, it is very precious, good, good." Long Xiao just smiled: "Mr. Ma also has research on Pu'er tea? ”。 Ma Buchu smiled and said: "I just like it, I have only drunk Pu'er for the past 30 years, and it is often out of stock, although I am an old professor, I still can't afford to drink Pu'er for 30 years by salary, it is one of my students who often sends me a little, so I know that it is this taste."
Long Xiao smiled: "Okay, I'll send someone to send you a little bit in the future, which can be regarded as a sign of respect for you." Ma Buchu hurriedly said: "Then thank you, I came today, mainly to talk to you about work, but not to ask you for Pu'er tea, let you laugh."
Long Xiao: "Old man, don't worry, you drink tea first, talk slowly, I have time." Ma Buchu said: "I heard that the city government wants to remove all the traffic lights in the sea market? Long Xiao smiled and said: "Mr. Ma is very well-informed, the symposium was held only the day before yesterday, but it was not used to settle down, my opinion is to tend to remove the traffic lights at the main intersections, as for the smaller intersections, they should be retained."
Ma Buchu sighed: "Mayor Long, I heard that when you were in Qilu, you removed most of the red street lights in Quancheng, didn't you?" ”。 Long Xiao: "It's not more than half, it's that the main intersections have been removed, and the effect is good." Ma Buchu said: "Otherwise, otherwise, Quancheng is Quancheng, he has historical reasons, in history there is the habit of building overpasses, now to strengthen some, it is just icing on the cake, the sea market is different, I think the beginning of the construction of the port in the sea market, is the Eight-Nation Alliance, especially the construction of Germany, the sea market is mostly to adopt the German architectural style, in the construction of roads, there are different reasons."
"In other cities, houses are built first, and roads are built later. At the beginning of the construction of the port, a lot of major roads were built that were small roads and even streets, which were designed in advance, and there were no worries about traffic, and now the reason for congestion is that the city government has not managed it well, and I think the design of traffic lights has a lot to do with it."
"For example, at the intersection of two main roads, one road is empty, and it is a minute, and the other road is overcrowded, and the stay time is also a minute, which is a big disadvantage, and besides, especially at night, there is no one on the road at all, the traffic lights are still working, and the pedestrians who are overlooking have to obey the traffic control, which is also unreasonable."
"Now it's all about intelligence, why isn't the design of traffic lights intelligent? It's a blind spot, don't you say, Mayor Dragon? ”。 When Long Xiao heard it, he felt that it was very reasonable, it was really like this, the sea market, including all cities in Huaxia, had this problem, no matter whether there were people or not, no matter how many people at the intersection, the stay time of the traffic light was certain, and it could not be intelligent at all, Long Xiao had a lot of interest when he heard it.
Long Xiao: "Ma Lao, what you said is very right, I can give instructions to the Municipal Public Security Bureau for them to make improvements, do you have any good ideas for the transportation construction of the Haishi market?" ”。 Ma Bu first saw that Long Xiao listened to his own suggestions, and he was even more energetic, so he continued: "Besides, the city wants to build a large overpass, I am not very in favor of it, except for the construction of some extra-large intersections, I think it is better to retain the original appearance of the city, which is more conducive to the management of the city."
"The management of the city is a science, not just what you want, nor is it decided by a few experts in the office after a few meetings, you need to go out and conduct field investigation and research. Urban congestion is not only the cause of intersections, but also related to the construction of urban transportation, for example, your implementation of the call for the whole people to ride new energy electric bicycles, is a good measure, at least in the control of congestion has played a great role."
"However, this is not enough, I suggest that all electric vehicles should also be subject to traffic control, just like new energy vehicles, only by setting rules can it become a circle, don't you say?" Long Xiao listened to Ma Buchu's words and felt a lot, so he decided to hire Ma Buchu as a consultant for urban construction and join the governance team.
Then, Long Xiao asked Mr. Ma Buchu to come up with a practical plan, and Ma Buchu took out a thick piece of information with a smile and gave it to Long Xiao. Long Xiao watched it for about half an hour, and he thought it was very good, so he asked Shen Dongping to print it out and let every member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee take a look, and then the Standing Committee was held, and some experts were added, especially experts like Ma Buchu, to participate and study together.
