China economic network Ji'nan March 8th (reporter Guan Bin, correspondent Zhao Dongyun) as the main way to improve urban traffic efficiency and solve urban traffic congestion, the problem of urban public transportation is always the focus and focus of all parties concerned. This year, Wu Qian, deputy director of the eleven National People's Congress and the customer service center of Ji'nan Public Transport Corporation, took the suggestions on public transport to the people's Congress. Wu Qian, the deputy director of the National People's Congress of the National People's Congress who is attending the national two sessions in Beijing and the deputy director of the passenger service center of the city bus general company, said that she was prepared to submit two proposals to the three session of the eleven National People's Congress this year, of which one of the series of policies hoping for public transport priority fell to the ground as soon as possible.
Wu Qian said that in Ji'nan, where the urban development is, where the road construction is, the bus routes will be opened to where. At the same time, the Ji'nan bus has launched the large station express, the area car, the branch line car, the student special line car, the district bus and the supermarket bus and so on, to meet the people's diversified travel needs, and let more people enjoy the convenience brought by the bus priority. From 2004 to now, Ji'nan Bus Corporation has bought 300 to 400 new cars a year on average, the bus operating vehicles increased from 2860 to 4218, the bus route route 118 increased to 188, and the daily passenger volume increased from 1 million 460 thousand to 2 million 200 thousand.
Wu Qian said that Premier Wen Jiabao pointed out in the government work report that the fundamental purpose of economic development is to ensure and improve people's livelihood, promote social harmony and progress and improve the livelihood of the people. Only by focusing on protecting and improving people's livelihood, can economic development have sustained momentum, and social progress will have a solid foundation and the country will have long-term stability. Ji'nan public transport always takes the social responsibility as the important content of creating service brand. In the case of continuous rising operating costs, Ji'nan public transport has carried out a half price ride to the elderly over the age of 65, carrying a free ride to the aged 70 years and older, the active service soldiers, the blind and the disabled and the police. The bus fare for the passengers and students with a monthly ticket is maintained. The bus fare of the city has been kept at the level of 2001. The average travel cost per person is only 0.83 yuan / person, which is 19% lower than that of the provincial capital city. The implementation of green public transport project, set up "bus lane", strengthen the bus vehicles for the right to use the road, the right to use the bus, the bus speed has been less than 13 kilometers from the previous years, to the current 19 kilometers.
as a representative from the grass-roots level, she suggested that a clear subsidy policy should be formulated for the public welfare expenses borne by the public transport. On the basis of fully understanding public transport for public welfare undertakings, a clear government subsidy to public transport enterprises is to facilitate the mass travel to provide compensation for high quality services rather than a subsidy for an enterprise; the corresponding preferential policies are the policy of benefiting the people and the people, rather than providing convenience for the enterprises to pursue the maximization of the interests. The government should give full play to the leading role of public transport at home and abroad, give full play to the government's leading role in the construction of the "urban public transport priority" system, the public public welfare expenditure undertaken by the public transport industry, and hope that the government departments should give a clear subsidy policy and support the development of "bus priority".
