Wagons are also expected to cross the river free of charge
Shandong commercial newspaper reporter Li Yu
in March 16th this year Ji'nan carried out the policy of free passage over the river for the following 7 small buses and cars, after the implementation of the policy The toll free call is also high, the logistics enterprises are looking forward to the early cancellation of the the Yellow River bridge charge for large trucks. Is there a solution to the problem at present?
Wang Hongzhi, director of the Ji'nan Municipal Development and Reform Commission, explained that after the bus and car are free of charge, the increase is very large from the current running situation of crossing the bridge vehicles. "The traffic volume of the construction of the bridge is nearly 1 times more than 1 times a day. It turns out to be over more than 10 thousand vehicles a day and now 19 thousand; the capacity of the old the Yellow River bridge has been saturated before 4200, now to 4400; the former 3800 vehicles of the the Yellow River bridge in Jiyang are now 7200, and the increase is great."
Wang Hongzhi said that, although the design capability of the bridge, the the Yellow River bridge of Jian state and the Jiyang the Yellow River bridge still have the power of more than 1/3, the key problem is that the vehicle capacity of the bridge is not matched with the road dredging capacity at both ends of the bridge. "A simple saying is that the cars are stuck on the bridge, especially the the Yellow River bridge of Jian state. The traffic inability to the city is not good, and a lot of vehicles are stuck on the bridge surface. In this case, if the freight car is free and the freight volume of some large trucks will be increased, the congestion will be aggravated. More cars on the deck will be detained, not only cars, but also large trucks, which may pose a threat to the safety of the bridge.
in spite of the difficulties, Ji'nan has proposed a three year programme of action for "building four centres", of which the timetable for the three year plan of the economic centre is clearly set out: the problem of charging the Yellow River vehicles by step by step from 2016 to 2018. In the first year, we took a big step. Although there are some difficulties now, there are more ways than difficulties. I believe these second steps are not far away. " Wang Hongzhi said.
