Safe and efficient "Loop of the Future"
Launched the "Nursing Post" ......
During peak commuting and commuting periods
The entrance of major schools in Qiantang
A beautiful landscape will appear on time
In recent years, Qiantang has continued to innovate and innovate
Make every effort to create a safe road to and from school
Let's take a look!
One-way traffic for a limited time
Concentrate on breaking through the "obstruction"
Every morning at 7-8 o'clock, Tuogeng Road and Yanchuang Road in Hezhuang Street can only be passed in one direction. At the entrance of Xinwei Primary School, the motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles on Tuogeng Street are diverted, and the different vehicles that send children to school drive according to the prescribed routes, that is, stop and go, and no longer have the scene of "horn pressing indiscriminately, a half-day block" in the past. And this is just a microcosm of Qiantang's "obstruction".
"Some schools don't have underground parking lots, and the total number of pick-up and drop-off vehicles during peak hours can range from six or seven hundred to more than 1,000, so alleviating congestion is a nuisance. The person in charge of the Qiantang Traffic Police Brigade said that after accurate mapping, traffic statistics, on-site surveys, and multi-party matchmaking consultations, and consultation with the community through public opinion surveys, it was finally decided to implement one-way traffic measures on some roads around the campus. At present, the congestion problem of Xuezheng Kindergarten, Xuezheng Primary School, Xuezheng Middle School, Guanlan Middle School, Guanlan Primary School, Yangzheng Middle School, Xinwei Primary School, Qianjiang Primary School, and Hangzhou High Qicheng School during the morning and evening pick-up and drop-off peak period has been solved.
"We have been implementing one-way traffic since late March last year, and we were the first schools in the district to adopt this measure. The vice principal of Xuezheng Primary School said that Tingtao Road is a two-way two-lane road, there is no public parking space on the side of the road, and more than 200 meters away from the school gate is the main entrance and exit of the Ithaca community. Now, after taking one-way traffic on Tingtao Road every day, the original congestion situation has been greatly alleviated.
Underground pick-up and drop-off system
Safe and efficient "Loop of the Future"
The time-limited one-way traffic measure is "really fragrant", but Hangzhou Wenhai Qiyuan Middle School "takes the usual path" and stops this measure in September 2023, why is this?
"Because it's not needed. The principal of Kai Yuen Middle School gave a very confident answer.
During the evening rush hour, only scattered electric vehicles were parked at the entrance of Kai Yuen Middle School, and seven knowledge lines were unveiled one after another, driving into the campus and driving to the centralized pick-up point, at this time, more than 30 parents were waiting for their children to get out of school at the pick-up point in the underground parking lot of Kai Yuen Middle School. "There are a total of 455 parking spaces underground, with a total traffic of more than 900 vehicles during the evening rush hour. The principal of Kai Yuen Middle School said.
Originally, Qiyuan Middle School opened up the underground pick-up and drop-off system, interconnected the school's self-built parking lot and social public parking lot through micro-transformation, and organized the flow of traffic from the east (Qianfan Road) to the west (Shuhai Lane) to reduce the interweaving of motor vehicle streamlines, and free parking for 1 hour during the peak period of pick-up and drop-off. This measure not only cures the congestion problem around the school, but also solves the problem of parking at night for the surrounding residents.
Not only in Qiyuan Middle School, but also from the second half of 2023, the Qiantang Traffic Police Brigade has joined forces to launch an innovative underground pick-up and drop-off system in many schools such as Guanlan Primary School and Wensi Primary School, which has greatly reduced the traffic pressure on the surface roads around the campus. "The underground pick-up and drop-off system is an innovation in the traditional campus traffic management model, and with the advancement of technology and the accumulation of management experience, this 'loop' is expected to be adopted by more schools in the future. The head of the traffic police department said.
The nursing post was in place on time
"Guardians" of children's safety
If improving traffic conditions is a "hard measure", setting up a guard post around the campus is a "soft service". The Qiantang Traffic Police Brigade further improved the "student protection post" mechanism, strictly implemented the "peak service" mechanism, and the traffic police members were responsible for directing traffic, and increased police force in bad weather such as rain and snow, timely detection and disposal of road congestion, traffic accidents, and sensitive incidents, and made every effort to protect the safety of the school gate and ensure that students cross the street safely.
Sun Haijun, a member of the mobile team of the Baiyang Squadron of the Qiantang Traffic Police Brigade, is a "veteran traffic policeman" who has been on campus for ten years. There are construction sites near Shuhai Lane, and social vehicles often pass by, making it one of the busiest traffic areas. During the evening rush hour, a junior girl was overwhelmed by the traffic because she was nervous, and Sun Haijun quickly stepped forward and took her little hand to escort her safely across the road. "It's a small thing, but it's not an accident, it's the epitome of how he cares for his children day in and day out. The person in charge of the school office of Qiyuan Middle School recalled.
Wenhai Primary School and Wenhai Middle School have set up a temporary parking area for pick-up and drop-off vehicles on Xuezheng Street, added a detour guidance sign at the peripheral intersection, and set up 3 non-motor vehicle pick-up and drop-off points around the school gate. In addition, the school has also optimized the integration of pedestrian crossings, and set up mobile traffic lights during peak hours, which ensures that pedestrians can cross the street efficiently and prohibits motor vehicles from making U-turns on road sections, improving traffic efficiency and ensuring safety.
In Qiantang, there are many "guardians" like Sun Haijun, who work hard every day, open umbrellas and open doors for children on rainy days, and command and coordinate in time when problems are found, so as to strictly prevent students from having traffic accidents at the school gate, which has become a beautiful scenery at the campus gate.
Zero tolerance for hidden dangers
Create a "safety line" at the school gate
At the same time of "hard measures" and "soft services", a district-wide investigation and rectification of potential safety hazards on roads around schools has also kicked off. After the start of the spring semester this year, the Qiantang Traffic Police Brigade conducted a comprehensive and in-depth investigation and rectification of the traffic hazards on the school roads and surrounding areas.
Relying on the four platforms of grassroots governance in Qiantang District, the Qiantang Traffic Police Brigade has developed a "one thing" platform for the management of road hazards, implemented an online rolling governance mechanism for the whole process of road hazards, and investigated a total of 22,078 traffic hazards in 2023, and treated 21,323 of them, with a hidden danger treatment rate of 96.6%. Since the beginning of the school season this year, a carpet inspection and management has been carried out on the roads around the school, a total of 49 school reminder signs have been added, 77 zebra crossings have been upgraded, and 385 traffic safety facilities have been improved, so as to create the most orderly, safe and smooth "road to school".
There are more than 50 primary and secondary schools in Qiantang, and since the second half of 2023, the district has accurately implemented the "one school, one plan" for 42 schools. Next, Qiantang will continue to make efforts in establishing a long-term mechanism, exploring innovative traffic diversion methods, integrating the advantages of all parties, sorting out and summarizing existing experience and practices, focusing on solving and optimizing the problem of traffic congestion around the school, creating a good traffic environment for teachers, students, parents and surrounding residents on campus, and comprehensively improving the happiness and satisfaction of the masses.
