The first day of adding "one bridge and three tunnels" in the morning and evening rush hours in the central city of Chongqing: What is the effect?

March 1st is the first day of the new "one bridge, three tunnels" restriction in the morning and evening peaks in the central city of Chongqing. Starting from today, some bridges and tunnels in the central city will carry out off-peak traffic for cars during peak hours. Among them, the "one bridge and three tunnels" connecting Zhiguanyuan in High-tech Zone and the central city, namely Shuangbei Bridge (two-way), Shuangbei Tunnel (two-way), University Town Tunnel (two-way) and Zhongliangshan Tunnel (two-way), are included in the off-peak traffic management scope for the first time. What’s the effect? What other mitigation measures are there? Look at the front report sent by the upstream journalist.
Shuangbei Bridge Shuangbei Tunnel > >
At 7 o’clock in the morning, the upstream journalist saw under the overpass of Laijiaqiao subway station in High-tech Zone that as the sky was getting brighter, the number of vehicles entering and leaving Shuangbei Tunnel obviously began to increase. As of 8 o’clock in the morning, the upstream journalists saw at the scene that the access to the Shuangbei Tunnel was still smooth, and the traffic lights at Sanshenggong Interchange, which was the most congested in the past, were only slow at present.
"In the past, from the Shuangbei Tunnel to the Laijiaqiao Light Rail Station, the driving was very slow, especially the Sanshenggong Interchange was seriously congested." Zhang Zhili, deputy head of the Second Brigade of the Traffic Patrol Detachment of the High-tech Zone Public Security Bureau, said that as of 7: 50 in the morning, the two-way traffic of Shuangbei Tunnel and Shuangbei Bridge was still smooth.
"Do you know the vehicle limit number with a tail number of 2 today?" At 7: 40 in the morning, the traffic patrol stopped a car with a tail number of 2 and asked, and the driver suddenly realized, "Oh, I saw the news before and forgot!"
According to Zhang Zhili, with the acceleration of the construction and development of the West (Chongqing) Science City, the traffic in high-tech zones presents problems such as large flow, low speed and uneven traffic distribution. According to the monitoring of professional institutions, the two-way traffic efficiency of Shuangbei Bridge and Shuangbei Tunnel decreased by about 14-20% during peak hours, so it is necessary to adjust the peak shift, so "two pairs" channels were added in the peak shift range.
In order to ensure the safe and smooth roads during the peak hours, the traffic patrol detachment of the Public Security Bureau of High-tech Zone deployed police forces to advance the arrival time of the morning and evening peak service posts by 15 minutes. At the same time, strengthen the patrol control of roads along Shuangbei Tunnel, Hangu Interchange and Qinglongzui Interchange, and find traffic accidents and faulty vehicles to be disposed of in time.
On-site police on duty will strengthen publicity and guidance, guide restricted vehicles to choose roads in advance, and impose on-site penalties on vehicles that violate the peak traffic of bridges and tunnels during peak hours and vehicles that occupy the main passages for a long time. In addition, for vehicles that violate the regulations on peak-hour traffic, 100 yuan will be fined and 3 points will be recorded in accordance with the punishment regulations for violating traffic ban signs by means of electronic snapshot and on-site law enforcement. Vehicles waiting for traffic illegally parked in the bridge-tunnel connecting passage will be disposed of in the way of illegal parking control in the strict management area. At the same time, the traffic patrol will continue to increase the investigation and punishment of serious illegal acts such as fake decks and blocking number plates to ensure the smooth and orderly operation of road traffic in the central city.
It is worth noting that this adjustment will also include the foreign number plate into the peak traffic object. According to the relevant person in charge of the Chongqing Traffic Patrol Corps, according to the traffic big data monitoring, foreign vehicles account for more than 7% of the vehicles passing through bridges and tunnels in the central city, and the average daily traffic volume reaches 100,000 vehicles/day. In order to ensure the maximum effect of off-peak traffic, and to avoid off-peak traffic by buying cars from other places, off-peak traffic is implemented simultaneously for foreign cars.
Zhongliangshan tunnel > >
At 8: 02 a.m., the upstream journalist drove in the direction of Zhongliangshan Tunnel, which is connected with Guli.
The reporter saw on the road that compared with the direction of leaving the city, there are fewer vehicles entering the city through Zhongliangshan Tunnel.
When entering the Zhongliangshan Tunnel, the reporter found a van with the license plate number "2".
When leaving the tunnel, the reporter found another foreign car with the license plate number "7" and entered the central city of Chongqing through Zhongliangshan Tunnel.
At 7: 44 this morning (1), upstream journalists entered the Zhongliangshan Tunnel from the direction of the West Ring Interchange.
The reporter saw at the entrance of the tunnel that the number of vehicles had begun to increase at this time, but there was no slow blockage. The reporter only found a private car with the tail number "2" within about 10 minutes after passing through Zhongliangshan Tunnel.
University town tunnel > >
At 8: 30 in the morning, when the upstream journalist drove through the University Town Tunnel, he found that the Chengdu-Chongqing Ring Expressway, which used to pass very slowly at this time, was exceptionally smooth at this time, and the navigation was also green and smooth. It only took the reporter less than 5 minutes to pass through the tunnel smoothly.
However, in the tunnel from Shapingba District to the University Town, the traffic volume is slightly larger, and a certain distance is displayed as yellow slow on the navigation. When the reporter passes by car, he feels that the transit time is slightly slower than that from the University Town to Shapingba, but it is much better than before.
"I know the limit number today and take the subway to work." Mr. Zhou, a citizen, is a high-speed reporter. He lives near the Three Gorges Square. At present, he works in Xiyong Microelectronics Park. He drives himself on weekdays. Knowing that there is a limit on the number today, he chose to take Track 1.
"It’s good to hear from colleagues that there is no traffic jam today." Mr. Zhou said that although you can’t drive one day a week, it’s also a pleasure to get four days for faster traffic.
