The bicycle boom forced the construction of the city into a mobile workshop

Bicycle Fever Pushes New Problems in Urban Construction

In recent years, bicycle races have been held in various parts of the country to promote "low-carbon environmental protection," while stimulating the local economic and social development. Popular bicycle races also continue to ignite people's enthusiasm for "green riding." Many cities are working to build a public bicycle rental system that will make public bikes a new card for environmental protection in modern cities.

Can previous bicycle powers reproduce glory? While many cycling cyclists enjoy "Happy Riding", they also call on the government to focus on the construction of a "green traffic network" to ensure that bicycle enthusiasts want to travel.

Bicycle race explodes green heat

The 2012 National Road Cycling Race is about to begin in Changsha with fiery enthusiasm, attracting cyclists from all over the world and igniting the enthusiasm of tens of thousands of cyclists in Changsha.

In recent years, with the two-time Changsha Changsha Xiangjiang River Invitational Tournament held, Changsha's cycling, bicycle tourism, and bicycle fitness and leisure activities have flourished. At present, Changsha bicycle tourism enthusiasts have exceeded 40,000. The concept of "eco-Changsha, low-carbon life, and green travel" has gradually become popular.

Riding a bicycle is not only a way of traveling for Changshans, but also an important leisure and fitness activity. Usually, riding a bicycle along the Xiangjiang River and blowing a river wind has become a habit of many cycling families in Changsha; over the weekend, a group of energetic cycling cyclists have experienced the speed and passion of cycling in the outskirts of the city, which has become Changsha. A beautiful landscape.

In Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Chongqing, Qinghai and other places, folk cycling activities have been hot, and more and more people are choosing to ride bicycles for leisure and fitness.

Advocating green traffic to change travel habits

Relieving the pressure on traffic and facilitating the citizens is a big issue for the city’s emphasis on protecting public travel rights. In recent years, Beijing, Shenyang, Hangzhou, Wuhan, Foshan, Zhuzhou, and many other cities have launched public bicycle services. What passes out is the green traffic signal.

According to the Changsha Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, bicycles are a kind of transportation with high energy conversion efficiency. According to statistics, riding a bicycle for 100 kilometers can save about 9 liters of fuel and reduce emissions of carbon dioxide by 20.7 kilograms. If owners of 12.48 million private cars in the country do so, then they can save 210 million liters of gas per year and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 460,000. Ton.

In May last year, Hunan Zhuzhou officially launched a public bicycle rental system. It has launched 20,000 bicycles and provided it free of charge for use within 3 hours. Yellow and green public bicycles, environmentally friendly and energy-saving hybrid buses have become a beautiful landscape in Hunan Zhuzhou, not only reducing urban congestion, improving the urban ecological environment, but also bring a lot of convenience to the people's travel.

The Zhuzhou City Government not only provides public bicycle services for the public, but also creates a green traffic environment that allows people to appreciate the benefits of green travel. Many citizens are happy to say that going shopping, going shopping in the supermarket or relaxing in the evening, cycling has become a habit.

Zhuzhou's green transportation system is also constantly affecting the surrounding cities. The green transportation system in Hunan's Changsha, Zhuzhou and Xiangtan regions is also expanding and expanding. In recent days, the Changsha Municipal Government has also announced that Changsha will build a domestic bicycle sports and leisure center within five years.

In January of this year, Liuyang, Hunan Province officially implemented public bicycle rental. The government put in a batch of urban public bicycles with fireworks background patterns and “green travel” lettering, making public bicycles a shiny new card for this county-level city.

According to Tong Zhongxian, director of the Urban Development Research Institute of the Hunan Academy of Social Sciences, bicycle travel has many advantages within a certain region. From an economic point of view, cycling can save money and people can avoid loans, car taxes, and oil prices. Rising and other annoyances, but also energy conservation and environmental protection, is conducive to improving the urban environment, is conducive to alleviating the problem of overcrowding caused by excessive urban motor vehicles and improving urban traffic ecology.

Riding a family, looking forward to protecting road rights, wanting to travel

To the annoyance of many “urban cyclists” is that with the increase in the number of motorized vehicles, bicycles are facing more and more problems. Originally, few bicycle lanes were occupied by motor vehicles, and some bicycle lanes were changed to public transport. On special roads, some roads have bicycle lanes, but when they encounter bus stops, they form the same situation as bicycles and buses.

The bicycle rider Gong Yiqun told reporters that the city has a large population, miscellaneous roads, and heavy traffic. Bicycle riders are in a disadvantaged position. Some bicycle cyclists can only walk through buses, cars, and motorcycles, posing a security risk.

Industry insiders pointed out that city managers should take into account people’s different travel needs and ensure the “road rights” of bicycle drivers. Bicycle travel should enter the focus of government attention. Can the urban cyclists rise again and whether the former bicycle powers can recreate the style of the year? This requires the government to provide a good urban ecological environment. ”

Tong Zhongxian suggested that public bicycles should become new business cards for the city. In addition to increasing the number of public bicycles and broadening the scope of services, relevant departments must formulate meticulous supporting measures, open up bicycle lanes, ensure road rights for bicycles, build strong road networks for public transportation, and rationally distribute bicycles. Public bike outlets, such as bicycle parking spots at major subway stations and transportation hubs, make it easy for bikers to travel.
