Beijing Traffic Police: If you find that road trees cover traffic facilities

Since the summer of this year, the number of rainfall in Beijing has increased significantly, and the trees have grown rapidly. In order to prevent the trees from covering traffic signs and signal lights in time, the Beijing Municipal Traffic Management Bureau will continue to increase the road trees cover with garden greening and other departments. For the special investigation of transportation facilities, in the past three months, the trees have been trimmed to cover the traffic signs and the traffic signal lights at 536 points.

The sidewalk trees on both sides of the road not only make the capital more beautiful, but also can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen when optical fit; Absorbing solar radiation, covering the sun in the hot summer, pedestrians can avoid suffering from the sun. However, the trees that grow too lush also produce some "side effects". The rapid growth of branches and leaves can easily block traffic signs and signal lights, affecting the identification of drivers, and there is a certain hidden danger of traffic safety.

In order to investigate and deal with hidden dangers of various types of problems in a timely manner to ensure that road traffic operation is safe and stable, since this summer, the Beijing Public Security Traffic Management Department has continued to carry out the special investigation of traffic facilities for "roads and roads" road trees in the organization. Actively coordinate the garden greening department to deal with the point where the road tree is covered. In the past three months, there have been 536 roadburning points on road trees such as the second, third, and fourth ring roads, the two vast streets, and college roads.

The Beijing Traffic Management Department stated that it will actively establish a long -term linkage mechanism with the garden greening department, normalize the clean -up and clean up, and timely investigate the hidden danger points to ensure the safety of the public's travel. If the citizens find that there are road trees blocking in daily travel, the "facilities report" module in the Beijing Traffic Police APP or the WeChat "Shooting" applet can be reflected in the traffic management department. After the information, you will contact the relevant departments in time to clean up. (CCTV reporter Zhao Xuerong)
