Recently, Fuzhou Municipal Construction Committee held a mobilization meeting on “rectifying traffic congestion”, making it clear that 50 road projects aimed at controlling traffic congestion will be completed this year. According to the construction plan, 12 will be completed in the first half of the year, 14 will be completed before the National Day, and 24 will be completed before the end of the year. These projects involve important roads such as the South Street section of Bayi Road, the mass West Road, and the station East Road.
At present, the safety islands at some intersections in Fuzhou urban area are embarrassed and heavy. During the peak period, a large number of non-motor vehicles “overflow” The safety islands and mix with motor vehicles, which affects the traffic efficiency of intersections. In response to this situation, Fuzhou has dismantled the Safety Island at the intersection of 61 Road and Fuxin Road on a pilot basis, and will consider promoting it at more intersections in Gulou and Taijiang.
Which road sections to dismantle the safety island depends on the pilot effect
At some intersections in Fuzhou city, there are safety islands for pedestrians and non-motor vehicles waiting to cross the street. At present, due to a large number of non-motor vehicles passing on the road, some safety islands are embarrassed and heavy. During peak hours, pedestrians and non-motor vehicles “overflow” The safety islands and mix with motor vehicles, which affects the traffic efficiency of intersections. According to the introduction of Fuzhou Construction Committee, in response to this situation, the pilot safety Island has been dismantled and rebuilt at the intersection of Liuyi Road and Fuxin Road recently.
At more than 5 pm yesterday, the reporter saw at the intersection that after the demolition of the safety Island, under the guidance of the reflecting road cone block and the traffic police and auxiliary police, the pedestrians who were waiting for red lights, non-motor vehicles all retreated to the sidewalk at four corners of the intersection, and the phenomenon of non-motor vehicles breaking into the motor vehicle lane rarely appeared.
“After the demolition of the safety Island at the intersection, one lane entering the intersection was added in the two directions of the 61 road respectively, and the traffic efficiency of motor vehicles was improved.” The designers of Fuzhou Planning and Design Institute said that in some intersections with a short distance of zebra strips, the cancellation of the intersection safety Island can effectively improve the traffic efficiency during peak hours.
The reporter learned that the demolition of the safety Island is planned to be promoted at more intersections in Gulou and Taijiang, but the specific implementation depends on the pilot effect.
The transformation was completed before the National Day in the South Street section of bayanqi Road and the mass West Road.
The reporter noticed that among the 50 congestion control projects to be completed in Fuzhou this year, important urban roads such as the South Street section of Bayi Road, the mass West Road and the station east road are involved, all the above three projects will be newly built or rebuilt before the National Day.
Among them, The widen modification of the mass West Road (Guangda Road-Wuyi Road) was delayed due to the relocation problem. A few days ago, the construction party has officially entered the site for construction. After the road is widened, it will share a large number of traffic flow of Gutian Road and Guogui Road, which can improve the network of Taijiang district and evacuate the traffic in this area.
Since the closed transformation in 2013, the South Street section of Bayi Road has been in the construction state, affecting the traffic capacity of this road. According to reports, the South Street section of Bayi Road and underground space passage will strive to be completed before the National Day. The underground space has multiple exits on both sides of Bayiqi Street, which will greatly facilitate citizens to cross the street, realize the separation of people and vehicles, and achieve the purpose of easing congestion.
Strictly check that the enclosure is too large and the enclosure is not built to reduce the impact of construction on traffic.
In addition to speeding up the construction of road projects, reducing the impact of road construction on traffic is also a key work highlighted by Fuzhou Construction Committee this year. “If the road construction enclosure is not built and the enclosure is too large, it will have a great impact on the traffic. We will plus-sized supervision and urge the construction unit before entering the enclosure, make necessary construction preparation and material procurement.” The relevant person in charge of Fuzhou Construction Committee said.
According to reports, Fuzhou construction committee will also establish a “blacklist” system for construction units this year. For the ranking of all construction units, points will be deducted once behaviors such as surrounding but not building and excessive enclosure are found. Construction units with lower points will enter the “blacklist” to restrict their participation in bidding for government construction projects. (Haidu reporter Wang Lincheng/Wen Baohua/picture)
