1. Where is the Lugu Highway?

Duku Highway, which is Dushanzi from National Highway 217 to Kuqian, starts from Dushanzi District, Karamay, connects the Kuqa Market in the south, and runs through the north and south of Tianshan. The total length is 561 kilometers.

The Duku Highway passed through the red mountain stone forest, the large and small Longchi, and the Bayin Brook grassland, and other famous scenic spots. The scenery was beautiful. Walking on this road, you can "watch the four seasons a day", you can enjoy the natural changes: Gobi deserted beaches, Yadan landforms, snow mountain lakes, alpine meadows, forest valley and other world -class beautiful scenery.

Here, it has been selected by "China National Geographic" as "the landscape avenue that runs through the beam of the heavens". It is a place for many self -driving tourists.

However, such a beautiful road is affected by snowfall and icing in the Tianshan Mountains in winter, and there are about half a year of "hibernation" every year. Only 5 months are opened each year, and the traffic time is only more than 4 months (usually from June to October). The opening and closing time must be determined according to the annual weather and climate.

In addition, even in the opening period, the Duku Highway is in the hinterland of Tianshan, through the mountains and mountains, the terrain is complicated and diverse, and there are many meteorological disasters and meteorological disasters. The collapse of gravel often occurs, and it is difficult to encounter dangerous rescue.

Therefore, the safe travel on the road is always a matter of heart to the meteorological department.

2. This is a "hero road"

Today, many people mentioned the Lugu Highway, always feeling its beauty. But more importantly, it is a heroic road, a road to inherit the faith.

The Duku Highway was built in the 1970s. Under extremely difficult and harsh conditions, it was completed by the PLA engineering soldiers for 10 years. The opening of this road made the traffic section north and south by nearly half from more than 1,000 kilometers.

The officers and soldiers of Duku Highway Construction often renovate the road on the road section of three or four kilometers above sea level.

At that time, the economic strength and technological conditions were limited. During the road repair process, due to the avalanche, collapse, landslide, rock blasting, mudslides and other reasons, 168 officers and soldiers of the PLA in their average age were sacrificed, and thousands of people were injured and disabled. They used steel -like perseverance and determination to build this road with their blood and sweat.

The hero's blood and sweat are not white. After completion, the Duku Highway has also become a "happy road" for people of all ethnic groups to go to a better life.

3. This is a "happiness road"

The resources along the Duku Highway are rich in resources, distributed with oilfields, coal fields, forest farms, grain and oil bases, fruit production areas, fine hair sheep production areas, velvet antler production areas, etc. The Duku Highway is the transportation road of these products resources. For a long time, the Duku Highway is the "great artery" that is related to the production and life of the people along the line!

In recent years, in addition to the transportation of agricultural and forestry products, the green mountains on both sides of the road have become the "Jinshan Yinshan" of the local people!

The person in charge of the Tax County House Ecological B & B said, Nurguli Alabak, said: "

"Driven by the Duku Highway, rural tourism has developed from farmhouse to high -end homestays. My home's homestay has invested more than 3 million yuan, focusing on national style. Although affected by the epidemic in the past few years I did a lot of other businesses at first! "

As the Duku Highway became popular on the Internet, the Internet Red Highway became a "happiness road" on the way of rural rejuvenation. It not only assumes the heavy responsibility of traffic roads in the north and south, but also looks like a winding river, bringing a steady stream of tourists, and letting people living here feel the vitality of the tourism economy. In the peak tourist season in 2019, the highest self -driving car carried 20,000 cars on this road. The flow of people "activated" the tertiary industry here.

Beishan Village, A Ge Township, Kuqi City is the first stop for Duku Road to enter the southern Xinjiang. Since 2021, Beishan Village has used its unique geographical advantages to invest more than 10 million yuan in comprehensive upgrading and transformation of tourism facilities in the village, adding a new model of rural tourism for "village committees + companies + farmers". Become an Internet celebrity punch point. Today, the villagers have eaten tourist meals, and the collective income of the village has increased from less than 50,000 yuan in 2020 to 350,000 yuan in 2021.

So, as tourists from Tiannanhai North have come, how can tourists have fun and peace of mind? The opening time of the highway is directly related to the duration of the local tourist season, and the precision research and judgment have a significant relationship!

More and more specific service needs, it is handed in the hands of meteorologists!

4. "Ping An Road" guarded by the Meteorological Man

Every year, before the restoration of the Duku Highway is the busiest day of the local meteorological person.

In late May, the staff of the Meteorological Department of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region came to various attractions along the Duku Highway and frequently -occurred areas of natural disasters to conduct field investigations. Focusing on flood prevention facilities, weather forecasting early warning coverage, and preventive measures for various attractions, the meteorological department and the autonomous region's culture and tourism department can open up the linkage mechanism to ensure that when the disaster weather occurs, tourists can receive early warning information and be properly resettled.

On May 30, at the K925-K926 section of the Duki Highway Library, the staff was building a leading silk cage protective wall next to a mountain.

Duku Highway not only "wear four seasons a day", but also "ten miles different days". This has brought great challenges to refined weather services and guaranteeing tourism security along the way.

To this end, the Cooperation District Highway Bureau and the Highway Administration Bureau of the Autonomous Region Meteorological Bureau carried out detailed exploration and site selection along the Duku Highway. Starting from September 2020, the construction of the Meteorological Transportation Monitoring Station of the Duku Highway was launched. 4 meteorological element observation stations have been constructed by the environmental fragile areas, the areas of meteorological disasters, and the popular attractions along the line.

These weather stations next to the Duku Highway focus on monitoring temperature, air pressure, wind speed, precipitation, pavement (temperature, dry and wet, freezing) conditions, especially for the Dazyan area and areas that are prone to snow -like floods and mudslides.

Tieli Buyda Tiban is more than 3,700 meters above sea level. It is the last Dashankou to turn over before the Duku Highway enters the Southern Xinjiang Kuku.

During the "14th Five -Year Plan" period, 4 automatic weather stations will be built along the Duku Highway. The gradual formation of the monitoring station network effectively improves regional meteorological monitoring and early warning capabilities.

In addition, in order to better serve self -driving tourists, the autonomous region's Meteorological Bureau and the Autonomous Region Culture and Tourism Department cooperate with the autonomous region to achieve real -time sharing of meteorological observation and forecasting early warning data. Visitors can use the "one mobile phone to travel Xinjiang" APP to master the independent storage highway and in real time The weather dynamics of more than 20 scenic spots along the line.

Nowadays, the multi -factor monitoring of the Duku Highway is becoming more and more precise, the research and judgment of the opening time of the road is becoming more and more accurate, and the forecast services that affect the weather along the road are becoming more and more fine. This "hero road" and "happiness road" are no longer afraid of the "challenges" of bad weather, but the beauty given to the climate is even more eye -catching!
