Recently
Citizen Ms. Wu called to reflect
Jinzhang Highway Zhangyan Avenue to Ganxiang Community Section,
There are street lights halfway through,
The other half is missing street lights.
Due to the large number of vehicles in this section,
And occasionally residents walk,
The lack of lights at night really affected
normal driving of passing vehicles,
At the same time, it also gives the surrounding residents a trip
It poses a great security risk.
At 8 p.m., driving along the Jinzhang Highway from Zhangyan Avenue all the way to the dry lane community, when the vehicle drove past the Poplar Harbor Bridge, it can be clearly seen that the overhead street lights are suddenly gone, and the original bright and transparent road surface is also plunged into boundless darkness. The vehicles in front of them turned on their high beams one by one, and although the road was much brighter, people were also shaken open. Ms. Zhang, who lives near the Jinzhang Highway, told reporters that this road is fine during the day, and at night, the other side of the bridge is dark, and it is also worrying to drive a battery car at night.
Villager Ms. Zhang
"There are no street lights over there, it's very dark at night, the car passes the section without street lights, the high beams are very bright, and the people riding battery cars are more dangerous, because they can't see whether there are piles or passers-by on the side of the road."
So why
A street lamp for a road
Only half of it?
Originally, bounded by the Yangshugang Bridge, Zhangyan Street belonged to qinwang village in Zhangyan Town, and the community from the bridge to Ganxiang belonged to the jurisdiction of Longyue Village in Luxiang Town. To put it simply, half of the Section from Zhangyan Avenue to Ganxiang Community of Jinzhang Highway belongs to Zhangyan and half belongs to Lvxiang, and the Zhangyan section has installed street lamps but the Lvxiang section has not.
In fact, as early as 2020, the Section from Zhangyan Avenue to Ganxiang Community of Jinzhang Highway basically had no street lights on all the lines. With the continuous development of surrounding enterprises, the traffic flow also increased, and later under the efforts of the Zhangyan town government, the Zhangyan section was installed with street lights in May 2020.
Yu Xiuhong, general secretary of the party branch of Qinwang Village in Zhangyan Town
"The construction of this section of street lights is from the Poplar Harbour Bridge to the South Cement Plant, a total distance of two kilometers, a total of 68 street lights installed. After the installation, the people responded to this very warmly, everyone felt that we had done a good thing for the people, and the employees of the industrial park felt that after having street lights, it was safer to go home at night than before. ”
But the situation of Longyue Village in the neighboring Town of Luxiang is completely different. The people on one side enjoy the light brought by the street lights, while the other side "gropes" in the boundless darkness and continues after several years...
Xia Haizhong, general secretary of the party branch of Longyue Village in Luxiang Town
"The Jinzhang Highway involves 6 groups in Longyue Village, about 300 peasant households, traveling at night, pedestrians and battery cars are particularly unsafe when there are vehicles driving by, especially when high beams are played."
The staff of the Urban Construction Office of Luxiang Town said that the reason why the street lights in the Yangshugang Bridge to the Ganxiang Community Section of the Jinzhang Highway have not been installed is mainly due to the lack of funds. In recent years, the people's desire for street lights has also increased. Through the efforts of all parties, the plan to install street lights on this section of the road will also be implemented in the near future.
Wang Yongqiang, a staff member of the Planning and Construction and Ecological Environment Office of Luxiang Town
"We have included it in the practical plan for 2022, and we have completed the preliminary mapping work, and the project is expected to start in May next year, and it should be fully completed in early October next year."
The distance of a bridge,
On one side is the "light",
On one side is "darkness",
At the same time, it is also cut off
The people's expectations for safe travel.
now
The installation of street lights has been put on the agenda,
The roads at the doorstep of ordinary people will no longer be "dark".
