China News Service, Lishui, February 5th (Shao Yanfei, Zhou Jian, Ye Bufang) "Green Wave" coordinated control system, low-carbon smart light pole system, tunnel quality improvement and upgrade system... Recently, in Songyang, Lishui, Zhejiang, with the S324 normal temperature The Songyang section of the line from Suichang junction to Yaxikou Huangtianpu section has completed digital upgrade and transformation. The digital highway project in Songyang autonomous driving and smart transportation to promote common prosperity in mountainous areas innovation demonstration project has also entered the trial operation stage.

  If you want to get rich, build roads first. Usually, transportation disadvantages are a constraint for shared prosperity in mountainous areas, but looking at Songyang, transportation development is not limited to road construction, but also moves towards a tens of billions industry. In recent years, the county has focused on the theme of transportation promoting common prosperity, implemented the development strategy of "turning resources into industries, and piloting projects", and solidly promoted the development of the comprehensive transportation industry with smart transportation as the core. "Mountains and people" and "roads and vehicles" have This achieves mutual success.

  Walking into the Songyang County Intelligent Transportation Industrial Park, the factory of Neolithic Autonomous Vehicle (Songyang) Co., Ltd. is in full swing. It is understood that the company is a company engaged in the production, manufacturing and sales operations of unmanned multi-functional vehicles, and is committed to the application innovation of "unmanned delivery" technology in mobile retail.

  "The government is very helpful, with high efficiency and considerate services." said Zhao Yin, factory manager of Neolithic Autonomous Vehicle (Songyang) Co., Ltd.

  It is reported that in order to create a tens-billion comprehensive transportation industry with smart transportation as the core, Songyang County took the opportunity of being the only pilot county for smart transportation industry development in Zhejiang Province to compile the "14th Five-Year Comprehensive Transportation Industry Development Plan" and "Songyang County Smart Transportation Industry Development Plan". Three-year action plan for the development of the transportation industry (2023-2025)", build a working system of "the county party committee secretary serves as the chain leader + executive chain leader + sub-chain leader + special class + joint meeting + chain owner + expert team" to build smart transportation Industrial parks, Hengzhao Intelligent Manufacturing Industrial Park and other industrial incubators.

  In 2023, there will be 31 new smart transportation-related companies in Songyang, and the output value of the comprehensive transportation industry with smart transportation as the core will reach 5.149 billion yuan for the whole year, a year-on-year increase of 52.65%. At the same time, as important projects and enterprises in the comprehensive transportation field have been launched in Songyang, more and more colorful demonstration application scenarios have come to fruition here, helping the mountainous areas to achieve common prosperity.

  For example, Sidu Township in the county is a popular tourist destination. Originally, the Zhaozhai Line was the only way to enter and exit the villages in the township. It had many steep bends, heavy traffic volume, and prone to traffic accidents. By incorporating smart transportation elements, Songyang built the county’s first mountainous smart highway in Sidu Township. Chenjiapu Village along the line has benefited from the continuous improvement of transportation. The village's cultural tourism and other industries have made great progress, and the per capita income of villagers has increased nearly three times compared with five years ago.

  "Compared to before, our travel is much more convenient and safer. There are bright 'street lights' on the road, and there are smart meeting reminders on sharp bends." Bao Peijun, a villager in Chenjiapu Village, was overjoyed when he mentioned the changes in travel.

  At the same time, Songyang actively implemented the "four grassroots level" system and carried out in-depth activities of "big visits, big surveys, big services and big problem solving". During the on-site visit, how to solve the imbalance between urban and rural development in mountainous areas has become an urgent focus in the development of the comprehensive transportation industry.

  In this regard, the county takes the "Passenger, Freight and Mail Integration+" mechanism in rural areas as a guide to promote the sharing of rural logistics resources, consider both passengers and freight, and combine transportation and mail, and create a "Passenger, Freight and Mail Integration" rural logistics operation model with the characteristics of mountainous counties. Achieve "daily necessities into the villages, mountain goods into the cities, employment and enrich the people", and test the results of thematic education with the actual results of ensuring and improving people's livelihood. According to statistics, in 2023, through the above-mentioned rural logistics operation model, local farmers shipped more than 700,000 kilograms of agricultural products such as peaches, navel oranges, and radishes.

  In addition, Songyang has implemented the "traffic first" strategy and has basically built a county transportation circle that "takes half an hour to Songgu Plain and one hour to the entire county." The total operating mileage of urban and rural public transportation exceeds 1,000 kilometers, with 100% public transportation. We have fully implemented the integration of urban and rural passenger transportation, promoted the integrated development of urban public transportation and rural passenger transportation, and strived to solve the problem of unbalanced and uncoordinated urban and rural development in mountainous areas.

  It can be seen that today’s comprehensive transportation industry with smart transportation as the core has built a bridge for the integration and symbiosis of Songyang’s urban and rural areas. "Next, Songyang will insist on focusing on new technologies, new models, new formats, and new products in the comprehensive transportation industry, vigorously promote the development of the comprehensive transportation industry with smart transportation as the core, and continue to promote the theme education to be in-depth and practical." Songyang County Said the main person in charge of the comprehensive transportation industry chain special class. (over)
