The Second Forty-Fourth Chapter Is Mixed

Wednesday, June 12.

Regardless of whether the car owners are willing or not, the ETC electronic congestion charging system in Shuchuan Province was officially launched at 8 o'clock this morning after several days of testing.

All vehicles entering and exiting the Second Ring Road of Rongcheng between 8-10 am and 5-7 pm on weekdays will be charged according to the set amount. All charges will not be made manually, but will be deducted through the ETC system. .

Originally, during the test a few days ago, there were still as many vehicles as before, but this morning, the reporters and camera vehicles guarding various traffic arteries can clearly see that after 8 o'clock, the traffic flow has decreased significantly one third.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the most congested time in this normal time, in addition to the continuous in and out of buses, the number of private cars miraculously decreased by half.

The constant flow of traffic in the past is now much less. Although the first day of tolling is implemented, everyone has to look at the effect, but it can at least allow the cars to move slowly without lining up in three or five rows and at a distance of more than 20 meters. , is a very good phenomenon.

The reporters naturally did not let go of those private car owners who still drove in and out of the Second Ring Road today, and seized the opportunity to interview them.

"I can't help it. My home is far away from work, but the bus is very crowded, so I can only buy a car to go to get off work. It turns out that it's better now. We have to pay so much money, and we can only share the expenses among several colleagues."

"10 yuan is 10 yuan, what's the big deal? Am I still afraid of this little money? But some people in our unit gave up. They said that 20 yuan is equivalent to a good lunch, and it was handed over to the government for nothing. It's such a waste."

"This ETC charging system is too sensitive. I was only about 5 meters away, and it gave me a notification sound, indicating that the deduction was successful. Tsk tsk, I feel so distressed when I think that 100 yuan can only be used for 5 days!"

"Although the hatchback is only 5 yuan, I think it is equivalent to the starting price of a taxi. I'm thinking of driving it for a month. If the cost is too high, I'm afraid I can only drive less."

"The ETC money alone is not a big deal. I heard that the city has decided to increase the fees for underground and road parking lots to ease the congestion in the main city. If that's the case, I'm afraid I can only drive less. , The increase of hundreds of dollars a month has a great impact on our small family."

"..."

Of course, more people complain that the government's fees are too harsh. It has not been done manually, and the fee will be automatically deducted as soon as it passes through, and there is no way to escape.

Compared to them, those people who usually take the bus to work have the same complaints.

"My God, I only know that the buses in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen are like canned fish. I didn't expect that one day our city will be like this! I can hardly breathe."

"Who said no? On my car, several old men and aunts will be squeezed and cry!"

"It's good to be able to get on the bus. We have a queue of more than 30 meters here. It takes the police to enforce discipline so that we don't swarm up and form a stampede."

"Really, I've never seen such a crowded bus in Rongcheng. How many of those drivers gave up driving and crowded the bus with us?"

"I heard that the municipal government has ordered a new batch of buses. They also need to open new bus lines. I think they have nothing to do. Now I know, this is absolutely necessary!"

"..."

When the news was reported to Xiao Xu's office, people from the transportation department were also reporting the situation.

"According to the report of the ETC department, during the peak charging period this morning, a total of 230,000 vehicles entered and exited the Second Ring Road of Chengdu City, with a total revenue of about 1.5 million." The official of the transportation department said, "If this situation is followed, then it is estimated that in the future The daily income should not be less than 2 million, and the highest can exceed 3 million. Not only is there room for departmental expenditures, but also subsidies for roads and municipal construction.”

Zhang Jingjing took the information that just came out, handed it to Xiao Xu, shook her head and said: "Your financial income in this area is good, but compared with the poor traffic of ordinary people, it is still a bit troublesome. Today's bus routes Additional shifts have been added during peak hours, with the most frequent one every 3 minutes, but it still caused a lot of overcrowding. Some buses were crowded with more than 100 people. If there is a slight disturbance and an accident is caused, I am afraid it will be difficult to end. .”

"You can't say that. The crowded time is only the peak time for commuting. If you only increase the number of buses purchased during this time, it will be a waste of money." Wang Minsheng also talked about his opinion on the side, "I think it is better to speed up the subway. Construction, the underground and ground transportation should be merged as soon as possible, so as to solve the public transportation problem to the greatest extent.”

"However, the operation of Metro Line 1 will take at least half a year, and the long-distance thirst cannot be quenched." Another official involved in the discussion said.

In the previous life, Metro Line 1 of Rongcheng City started operation at the end of September 2010. However, in this life, because Xiao Xu took over Rongcheng City, he has given a preference in terms of capital and technical strength, so it can start trial operation in October this year at the most. , There is no big problem in the official operation in December.

For this reason, many people persuaded Xiao Xu to postpone this ETC congestion control plan and implement it together with the opening of the subway, which would be even more foolproof.

But Xiao Xu thinks differently. Rongcheng is now a pilot project, so information from different periods is needed, including those with subways and those without subways.

So let's start with congestion control for half a year to see what areas need to be improved and what areas can be further developed.

"The taxi drivers are the happiest now." Zhang Jingjing laughed, "According to the information, from past seven o'clock this morning until around eleven o'clock, taxis are basically due to the shortage of taxis. If this situation continues, it is estimated that the monthly income of taxi drivers can increase by 50%.”

"As long as we don't solve the severe congestion during peak hours and make it easier for most people to travel, it won't be considered a success." Xiao Xu smiled slightly, "Well, according to the current situation, we will temporarily adjust the bus routes on popular routes tomorrow morning as planned. The number of vehicles, put those unpopular route vehicles into it."

"yes!"

The traffic department official nodded.

"Don't be too nervous, everyone. It's only the first day, and nothing is the final result." Xiao Xu looked at them, "You have to remember that everything is based on the convenience of the common people, everyone should pay more attention to it. In the actual situation, I hope to see the most practical and practical suggestions to help solve the problem.”

"yes."

A group of people replied respectfully.

They know that Xiao Xu is not talking clichés. After he became the secretary and mayor of the municipal party committee of Rongcheng City, the biggest policy he implemented was to promote talents. As long as you have no problems with your behavior, you can find a solution to the problem , then you can get as much reward as you can get.

Among them is a section chief of the Environmental Sanitation Bureau, because he proposed a method that can save water resources and beautify the city to the greatest extent. After a trial and found that it is effective, Xiao Xu promoted him to the deputy director of the Environmental Sanitation Bureau. .

There is also an ordinary worker in a high-tech zone who wrote a scientific and effective distribution plan when dealing with the water and electricity supply of many companies, which not only satisfactorily resolved the problem of resource disputes, but also greatly improved the efficiency of energy utilization, directly He was promoted by Xiao Xu to become the deputy director of the high-tech zone, who was responsible for the deployment of this area.

There are many such things.

Xiao Xu promoted talents so eclecticly that many young civil servants in Rongcheng climbed to higher positions by virtue of their own abilities.

The officialdom has always been a place with insufficient vitality. Xiao Xu injected such a fresh breeze in, which not only made the governance of Rongcheng City more energetic, but also made these moderate officials feel a sense of crisis all the time.

Where do you think those young people got their official positions when they came to power? Didn't they rob the old people?

And others dare not suppress it, otherwise you will suffer if you file a complaint!

Wasn't that how the deputy director of the Finance Bureau was directly slapped to the end?

When everyone left the office, Xiao Xu left Zhang Jingjing behind.

"Jingjing, I heard that you have some problems with your relationship recently?" Xiao Xu asked harmoniously, "If you need to rest, you can rest for a while."

He is not hypocritical, nor does he have other plans.

It was because Zhang Jingjing had been working so hard during this period that she didn't rest at all. Xiao Xu was surprised to find out the reason after inquiring about it.

That's why I want her to rest.

"No need." Zhang Jingjing shook her head, "I can talk about the emotional aspect later. Now I focus on work, and I will start dating again when I have a relationship next time. Book. If you are okay, I will go out first busy."

"Okay..." Xiao Xu couldn't say much, "Although love is important, it's not the whole of life, as long as you can be strong."

"Ok."

Zhang Jingjing smiled and left the office.

But as soon as she walked out the door, her face darkened.

There is no doubt that Zhang Jingjing's mood has not been good recently.

Numbing herself with work is the best way she can think of, which is far better than traveling alone.

You know, if you do nothing, the feeling of emptiness will be even more uncomfortable.

Thinking of Long Bowen, Second Miss Zhang is still full of grievance and heartache.

Speaking of it, men are cheap bones!

Flirting with flowers and grass everywhere, with newcomers forgetting old ones! !

Zhang Jingjing gritted her teeth, but deep loss and sadness welled up in her heart. (to be continued ~^~)

PS:  Actually, I think JD.com is far better than Taobao as a shopping agent in townships, because Taobao platform is a mixed bag, and Tmall is not so completely reassuring. Jingdong, which does its own procurement, at least has a more secure source of goods. In any case, this kind of behavior of doing good things for the peasants in the township cannot be overstated!
