Every time during the Chinese New Year, returning after the holiday or other festivals, the roads are jammed like a sea of ??cars. When the congestion is severe, it is common to only walk a few hundred meters in half an hour. When driving, No one can escape the torment of traffic jams. When traveling during the holidays, watching the sea of ??cars is an indispensable "landscape". The most frightening thing is that with the increasing popularity of private cars, the traffic jam phenomenon has not improved but has become increasingly serious.
One of the most important reasons for traffic jams is the traffic lights at intersections. An uncle designed a new overpass solution that can effectively alleviate traffic jams on overpasses. This design is called a straight overpass and roundabout traffic bridge.
This design scheme is very different from our common overpasses. From the perspective of the entire structure, it is divided into three layers: the upper, middle and lower layers. The middle and lower layers have vertical through lanes in four directions, which not only allow vehicles to When driving, both sides can also be made into non-motorized lanes or sidewalks. This design realizes the mutual independence of motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles and pedestrians, which can ensure smooth traffic and will not interfere with each other due to congestion.
The upper floor is designed as a roundabout, where turning vehicles or medium-sized cars drive, and the overpass can also be miniaturized.
Why is this design possible?How to effectively divert traffic? First, the straight and turning vehicles are separated; second, the two-layer straight lane design does not require the installation of traffic lights, saving vehicles the time of waiting for traffic lights. The cooperation of the two specially designed ones can effectively alleviate traffic jams.
It is said that this design can improve traffic efficiency ten times, and has applied for a national patent. I hope that after it is popularized in the future, you can drive a car on the road smoothly during holidays.
