Shenzhen Traffic Police opened the fast street mode at the 196 intersection

In the hot summer, many citizens reported that they were most afraid of crossing the street twice when they passed the zebra crossing. The space for a long time and small space for the red and green lights was completely exposed to unbearable sun. The reporter learned that in order to reduce the waiting of the public through the streets, the Shenzhen traffic police adapted to local conditions to optimize and adjust the eligible 196 intersections.

Secondary street safety island is not safe

"The safety island at the intersection is relatively narrow. Often, several electric bicycles and bicycles are full, and it is difficult for pedestrians to have a place." Ms. Liang told reporters, "In summer, we go out with umbrellas. There is no room for the safe island of crossing the street. Many times everyone stands outside the safe island and watched the car passing by, and it feels very dangerous. "

The reporter visited the survey and found that there are similar problems at the intersection of many crossing streets in our city. Due to the limited space, the longer the waiting time of the traffic light, the faster the backlog and spillover of all parties on the safe island. The more severe the blockage and hidden dangers.

Adjust the signal light to help the public avoid the sun

The reporter's investigation found that with the changes in the traffic situation, the rapid growth of electric bicycles, shared bicycles, etc., the shortcomings of the second street crossing the streets have become more and more obvious, such as the long waiting time for pedestrians, insufficient space for stopping, overflowing safety hazards, and so on. "Shenzhen's transportation managers must re -examine the second street cross -street in the city, attach importance to the effective space for the second street, and attach importance to the various hidden dangers of electric bicycles, bicycles, and pedestrians overflowing to motor lanes to interfere with the main traffic." Experts said in an interview with reporters.

Recently, due to the hot weather in Shenzhen, the citizens' feelings of inconvenience in the second street have become stronger. In this regard, the Shenzhen traffic police also implemented corresponding measures.

Keiyuan Baishi intersection is located in the Nanshan High -tech Garden area. There are many high -tech enterprises nearby. During the peak hours, pedestrians cross the streets. When there are cross -street demand across the road, they need to pass multiple zebra crossing. In order to avoid passing the streets and other red lights for too long, the traffic police department designed pedestrians to start early on the street safety islands at this intersection. After optimizing the pedestrian crossing the street, the length of waiting for the streets will decrease by 46 seconds. "This is so less to wait for a while, I feel very good." The citizens had a direct experience.

"Zebra crossing green wave" helping the traveler cross the street once

According to reports, for some secondary cross -street intersections with insufficient space to stop, pedestrians staying on safety islands, a sharp increase in pedestrians during the peak period, and relatively small motor vehicle traffic, the traffic police department has created a "zebra crossing green wave". Reduced the air in the intersection while achieving a pedestrian crossing the street. "Not all the secondary streets are applicable, because we must comprehensively consider the needs of all transportation participants such as pedestrians, non -motor vehicles, motor vehicles, etc., and find a balance point to the greatest extent between supply and demand." Introduction to the first -level technical director of the Transportation Science and Technology Division.

At present, Shenzhen Traffic Police has opened a traffic light mode that facilitates the citizens to quickly cross the street at the 196 intersection, and adopts the special phase of pedestrians, or on the right for the existence of secondary cross -street safety islands overflow and slow crossing the street trajectory. Measures such as differentiated control of division to improve the order of slow crossing through the streets and strengthen pedestrian street safety guarantees.

In the next step, the traffic police department will continue to guide the signal time engineer and the traffic police brigade of various districts in various jurisdictions to further investigate and optimize the red and green lights.
