The New Taipei City Traffic Bureau has improved the conflict between locomotives and straight trains by setting left-turn lanes. However, there are still many areas where the road width is too small to be designated as a dedicated road. Imagine setting up LED auxiliary lights in the area to be converted to remind drivers to drive straight ahead. At present, Zhonghe Bridge and Luqiaoqiao An Street are selected as demonstration areas, and it is expected that there will be more than 20 at the end of the year.
The transportation bureau set up a dedicated left-turn lane for locomotives. On the 11th of this month, Zhonghe Zhongzheng Road and health intersections were newly added. The number of dedicated left-hand lanes in the city has increased to 33, and the Cavaliers no longer have to wait until the transfer area, significantly reducing the collision between locomotives. However, there are still many roads in the urban areas that are narrow. It is quite untenable to draw one more dedicated lane.
According to Chen Chengjian, Chief of the Traffic Control Department of the Transport Bureau, the intersection of Zhonghe Qiaohe Road and Qiao'an Street is a T-shaped intersection. At the intersection, the local train left turns left to be turned to the transfer area, but it has to be deployed on the outside because there is not enough space to withdraw. In the driveway, the direct steam locomotive once crossed the circumstance to be turned around, and the dangers and dangers of the process occurred.
Chen Jiancheng said that the Bureau of Communications changed the area of the area to be turned left to turn LED strips. If the light source is insufficient, the LED flashing mode will be automatically activated when the number is green and reminds the driver of the vehicle to go straight through the area. Deceleration, avoiding traffic in the area to be converted, strengthening the left-turn machine at intersections to be followed by two-stage turnaround instructions. At present, the test results are good. It is expected that there will be an additional 20 before the end of the year.
In addition to the new measures for marking, the Transport Bureau also selected 14 locations including Banqiao, Mie, Xinzhuang, Zhonghe, Yonghe, Tucheng, and Danshui, and set up a dedicated parking grid for roadside electric locomotives. It is estimated that approximately 150 motors can be provided. Car use, follow-up will review the setting of electric vehicle charging equipment, encourage the use of electric vehicles.
