During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, Chengdu will fully implement the "Ten Major Projects for a Happy and Beautiful Life", among which "continuous improvement of urban commuting efficiency" has attracted much attention. On December 26, at the group discussion at the 8th Plenary Session of the 13th CPC Chengdu Municipal Committee and the Municipal Party Committee Economic Work Conference, Hu Qinghan, Chairman of Chengdu Rail Transit Group Co., Ltd. stated that during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, Chengdu will accelerate the construction of rail transit and TOD In comprehensive development, more than 260 billion yuan has been invested in rail transportation. At present, 12 subway lines have been opened with an operating mileage of 518 kilometers (39 kilometers without trams). Hu Qinghan also talked about the long-term goal of Chengdu's rail transit development in 2035-in the central city, the subway will be the main mode of travel, which will take up 40% of the total travel volume of citizens.

How to further improve the efficiency of urban commuting and provide citizens with more convenient and diverse travel modes? In an interview with reporters, Hu Qinghan stated that the Chengdu Metro’s mission is very clear regarding the development plan during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. At the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the mileage of Chengdu Metro in operation and under construction will reach more than 850 kilometers. Chengdu Metro is under construction for 176 kilometers. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, according to the fifth phase of Chengdu's urban rail transit construction plan, we will strive to declare a mileage of 150 to 200 kilometers. By then, the total mileage of Chengdu Metro in operation and under construction will exceed 850 kilometers." Discussion The meeting also mentioned some problems in subway construction. For example, in the area at the end of the subway line, the flow of people is insufficient, but failure to repair the subway will affect the construction of related functional areas. What should be done? "It can be solved by building an elevated tram and using the same station transfer method at the subway station. This way, the passenger flow is more suitable and economically more reasonable." Hu Qinghan said that the tram has been operating 39km online. In the future, trams will be built at the ends of subway lines in the West High-tech Zone and Longquanyi District.

"With the advent of the'Metro City', the subway will become the main mode of transportation in the city. In the future, all stations of the Chengdu Subway, within a range of 500 meters from a single station and 800 meters from two stations, will fully implement the TOD model." Hu Qinghan pointed out that To comprehensively develop and reorganize the business district and public service system with TOD, guide the adjustment of urban spatial layout, promote the upgrading of community commercial services, and provide more high-quality services to the public. Hu Qinghan said that the construction of the TOD model raises funds for rail transit on the one hand and feeds back the construction of rail transit; on the other hand, through the construction of the rail transit industry ecosystem, we strive to establish a model of sustainable rail transit during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. . At the meeting, Hu Qinghan also talked freely about the long-term goal of Chengdu's rail transit development in 2035-in the central city, the subway will be the main mode of travel, which will take up 40% of the total citizen travel. In addition, conventional buses accounted for 10%, slow traffic accounted for 35%, and motor vehicles accounted for only 15% of total trips.

He said that according to current calculations, at the end of the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the goal of metro travel accounting for more than 30% of all travel modes can be achieved. "At that time, through subway + bus + slow travel, everyone can quickly go to where they want to go, which is convenient for everyone's work, life, entertainment, sports and leisure, and at the same time contributes to environmental construction. , To help Chengdu accelerate the construction of a park city demonstration area that implements the new development concept."Editor/Xing Wentao
