Public transportation is the guarantee of residents' travel. Recently, we have received a number of complaints about the adjustment of bus stops, among which the residents of Xuhui Dongwan Community reported to us that just last week suddenly posted a public notice, the 770 road at the door of the house will be removed and withdrawn, and the existing residents of this community more than 2,000 households, a total of more than 5,700 residents, this line carries the residents to see a doctor, study, rail transfer and other functions, the bus line that has been running for more than ten years Why should the station be withdrawn?
Residents of Dongwan Community, Huajing Town, Xuhui District, reported that there is a 770 bus line at the entrance of the community, which leads directly to Xujiahui, which is very convenient, but on July 3, some residents saw a public notice for soliciting opinions on route adjustments, informing that 770 Road may be canceled, which made everyone anxious. "If it is canceled, it will have a great impact on our lives, and the only route to Xujiahui is the closest." "The last kilometer has not been solved, and the solved kilometer has been cut off by it, which is unreasonable."
Dongwan Community was built in 1994, at that time, because of the inconvenient transportation around, with the active efforts of all parties, there was 770 Road to set up a station at the entrance of the community. The terminal station of 770 Road, Xujiahui, passes by Longcao Road Station, Longhua Station and other subway transfer stations along the way, as well as Gao'an Road No. 1 Elementary School, Ziyang Middle School and other schools, and the elderly in the community also need to go to the hospital through this line. The old man said: "When we get older, we have to seek medical treatment, and we have been riding for so long, he said that it will be demolished, and he does not take into account the suffering of the people." The child also said: "After school, I also take the subway to Longcao Road and then change to 770." ”
When 770 drove into the Dongwan community gate site, there were already five or six percent of passengers in the car, and there were about ten people at this station, and the vehicle continued to drive to the next station Xupu Bridge to carry passengers, it was almost full. After the adjustment, the departure station was changed from the original Changhua Road Huajing Road to Huafa Road Changhua Road, and then a number of stations have also changed accordingly, so that it is not only a community that will be affected, but also the residents of many large residential areas along the line will be affected.
So why do bus routes, which have been in operation for more than 10 years, need to be adjusted? The reporter called the 770 team for consultation, and the other party said that he only received the notice on the 30th. "Changhua Road is the terminal here, it is difficult to store cars, and I don't know where this year, it may be that the surrounding residents continue to complain to the relevant departments, saying that there are potential safety hazards on the side of the road, and the final decision is to change the route to the terminal after multi-department participation and coordination."
The reporter came to the starting station of 770 Road, the staff introduced, the starting station to accommodate a total of 73 cars on four lines, but due to the small harbor area of the station, 731 Road and 770 Road can only be parked on the motor lane outside the harbor, occupying two motor lanes. "It used to be good to park, because the traffic flow was small, but now the traffic flow is a little more, and 9 minutes in advance, it will be parked outside and can't be lined up."
Bus Company 2 said that after this adjustment, the 770 terminal will be moved to Huafa Road, the 820 terminal, which is about 2 kilometers away from the original terminal. Wu Zuyao, manager of the business department, said: "In fact, the 770 station is given up, and the 731 is entered into the harbor type, and the 770 to 820 terminal station can only be replaced in this way, otherwise the potential safety hazards will always be there, and it has been coordinated several times." ”
In fact, it is not an isolated case that the problem of supporting bus lines in some large residential areas has caused contradictions. There is only one Songjiang No. 21 bus near Wenxiang Road, Songjiang Rongshu Road, and the interval is 30 minutes. With the continuous introduction of population, the contradiction that bus schedules cannot meet the needs of residents has become increasingly prominent. The NPC deputies suggested that the problem of matching public transportation resources in large communities still requires relevant departments to visit more to observe the actual needs before making decisions, and then carry out overall planning. "Cancel this part of the bus, can we add a departure interval on another bus route, because changing the travel habits of citizens will inevitably change their living habits, and we can't create another contradiction because of the emergence of the previous contradiction, is there a better solution." Zhan Tingting, a representative of the Municipal People's Congress, said.
In line with the changes in urban development and living environment, the adjustment and optimization of bus stops itself is understandable, but can we do research in front, find out the needs and confusion of the people, and do things in front, rather than one-size-fits-all or because of the other party's complaints, after all, a bus is not only the travel needs of the people, but also carries the background color of people's livelihood.
