readx;

The completion of the provincial elevated highway has greatly promoted the economic development of the province, especially the coastal cities and border cities, with such a convenient passage, it is simply for the economy to plug in the wings, not to mention anything else, it is said that there are tens of millions of residential sleeping cities in Taiyan City, which has also become a hot spot for investment.

Because Taiyan City is the best deep-water wharf in the country, and it is also a rare ice-free port in the north, Taiyan City is adjacent to South Korea, and is an important transportation base with South Korea.

Today, Taiyan City is no longer a simple sleeping city, but a modern city integrating industrialization and commercialization, and its population has rapidly expanded to nearly 15 million.

The provincial party committee saw the high-speed changes in Taiyan City, so they went to Taiyan City several times to conduct research, and after careful analysis, the conclusion was the construction of the provincial expressway. As a result, the provincial party committee had its own plan.

For a long time, due to the vigorous investment of the provincial party committee and the construction of the development zone along the Yellow River belt, the population of the provincial capital has also expanded rapidly, and now the spring city has approached 20 million, and the huge population pressure has also brought many difficulties to the spring city, one of which is the difficulty of travel.

In the provincial capital of Quancheng, traffic jams have become normalized, especially during the rush hour of commuting, the speed of the car is not as fast as the people on the sidewalk, this is the biggest headache of the provincial party committee, has not been well solved, now, the construction of the provincial viaduct has brought light to the provincial capital Quancheng.

Therefore, Long Xiao convened the Standing Committee and invited a number of experts to attend the Standing Committee to study the road problem in Quancheng.

That is, whether to build elevated urban roads in the city, Long Xiao explained: "There are a total of 30 main roads in Quancheng, 15 vertical, 15 horizontal, the basic length is more than 10 kilometers, according to the calculation of 10 kilometers is 300 kilometers, according to the calculation of 50 million per kilometer, it is 15 billion, plus the approach bridges on both sides, it is 20 billion, let's discuss it."

Some said: "It is a good thing to build a viaduct, but not only the cost of repairing the bridge, but also the cost of demolition. ”。

Some said: "It's good to build a viaduct, but if the construction starts at the same time, the roads of the whole city will be paralyzed, so what should I do?"

Some said: "Will the construction of viaducts affect the beauty of the city, there are viaducts everywhere, is it ugly, this is not consistent with Quancheng is a tourist city."

Others said: "I have no objection to building elevated highways, but whether elevated highways can really play a role is another matter, such as the capital, there are many viaducts, and they are indeed still very congested, what if we build viaducts or traffic jams."

When Guo Jinlai heard this, he agreed with this opinion: "Secretary Long, I think this opinion is good, there are many elevated roads in the capital, why are they still blocked, it's a big problem."

Long Xiao had to ask for the opinions of experts, and Guo Bufang, a well-known urban transportation expert in the country, said: "Governor Guo, Quancheng is different from Beijing, there are too many people in Beijing, all of them have reached more than 50 million, and the huge population pressure is also a problem, but this is not the most critical, the key is the road in Beijing, and the main street is not designed as a viaduct."

"Our spring city is different, after the last renovation of the old city, the new construction of the city, the road is particularly spacious, why change the traffic jam, I think it is caused by traffic control, think about it, if there is no traffic light on the main road, you don't have to stop, what is the concept?".

Someone asked, "How can I do it without a traffic light?" Isn't that a mess? ”。

Guo Bufang said with a smile: "How impossible, each road is designed as a special road, you can do without traffic lights, the current road is into a misunderstanding, as long as there is an intersection to install traffic lights, it is to artificially limit the walking route, if each intersection is designed as a three-dimensional cross bridge, you can avoid this problem."

When Long Xiao heard this, he was very interested: "Professor Guo, you go on, I think yours is very reasonable." Guo Bufang: "Hehe, I have inspected many cities in the world to come to this conclusion, all the traffic is not congested in the city is designed like this, the design of the capital is a big problem, since there is a viaduct, there is no special steering route, naturally there will be congestion, just imagine, each traffic light stop for a minute, the city has thousands of traffic lights how many minutes? , it's no wonder it's not congested."

Long Xiao agreed: "Professor Guo, I can understand it, your suggestion is: not necessarily to build the city's elevated highways, but at the intersection should be designed as an elevated overpass, the design super like to turn to a dedicated road, you can completely avoid urban congestion, there is a big premise in this, that is, to cancel the red street lights at the main intersections?" ”。

Guo Bufang smiled: "Secretary Long, you said it right, that's what I mean, this also saves a lot of money for the provincial government, the main thing is to solve the pressure of urban congestion, when let, solve urban congestion, not only the problem of roads."

Guo Jinlai asked, "What else?" Guo Bufang: "There is also a vigorous development of the public transport system, advocating green travel, there are still too few buses in Quancheng, as long as the operation of the car is restricted, it can be a good solution to the congestion of the car, the capital has implemented a limited number, I think it is a good way."

Long Xiao: "What Professor Guo said is right, do you have any opinions?" ”。

Some said: "The limited number is not a way, what if someone buys two cars and drives them instead?" Guo Bufang: "That's easy to do, just increase the charging standard of parking spaces, as long as everyone feels that driving is not cost-effective, you can stop driving."

Long Xiao really thinks that this measure is not good, the limit number is already deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the big city, the road is everyone's, if it is not appropriate to charge on the road, Long Xiao does not agree with such a statement at all: "Professor Guo, what you said is very good to engage in three-dimensional road **, but you said that I don't approve of raising the parking fee standard, isn't this a disguised looting of people's wealth, the people will scold their mother, it's not appropriate."

Guo Bufang saw that Long Xiao was a little angry, so he didn't dare to insist on his statement, but Guo Bufang's proposal to cancel the traffic lights at the main intersection and build a three-dimensional viaduct was still adopted by Long Xiao, and the Standing Committee members also agreed, and the matter was settled.

The subsequent problem is the implementation, there are 225 major intersections in the city, as long as the three-dimensional traffic is built, things are quickly implemented, each overpass is only 20 million, less than half a year to build it, sure enough, the city's traffic has been greatly alleviated, and the daily traffic jam is basically gone.

This incident was later published by Professor Guo Bufang in the form of a paper in an internationally renowned urban transportation magazine, which caused a huge response from the world, and they all called Guo Bufang one after another, asking Guo Bufang to go to their city to give lectures and give classes with those officials.

Professor Guo's theory was recognized around the world, and a campaign to eliminate traffic lights in major cities quietly began. The traffic of Quancheng City has also been well sorted out, and Quancheng City has become a typical model of national traffic governance, and Long Xiao has also been invited to give speeches in various provinces. Izumi Castle is also welcoming people who are inspecting.

People found in the investigation, Quancheng is not only the city traffic is good, is the city's public transport system is very perfect, the buses of each traffic line are not only a lot, but also very punctual, the public travel is very convenient, although there are a lot of cars parked on the street, but the market is not a lot, the people who inspect look at the license plate will know, there are a lot of foreign cars in the driving, the city license plate of the car is less, this is a big progress of the citizens, people know the green travel.
