Remembering the old: the stink of the river had made the residents on both sides of the suffering
Because the Xiong'er River and the Jinshui River, like the Zhengzhou city, naturally, is also the center of gravity of the city's river prevention and control. In addition, the Xiong'er River from the foot of the Southeast City down there is no fixed trough, every flash floods, Shenzhuang, Hezhuang, Yanzhuang, Fenghuangtai and other villages have suffered from it. History of flooding is very much documented, therefore, the convening of dredging Xiong'er River River Conference, planning the river dredging project has become a necessary work of successive governments.
After the liberation, Zhengzhou Municipal People's Government also put the governance of the city's rivers on the agenda, in August 1949, the organization of the city's cadres, military police, school teachers and students dredging Xiong'er River. Dredging project to participate in 26 units, 4,160 workers, digging 6530 meters, 19,600 cubic meters of earth. 1950 August, and mobilized four townships of farmers digging Xiong'er River, 6,350 meters long, deepening 0.6 meters, dredging Phoenix Terrace around 30,000 acres of land that is to go to the water. 1952, once again, the organization of the farmers along the river dredging 3,250 meters. After 1958, 1959, 1963, several dredging and renovation, Xiong'er River bottom width increased to 12 meters, the river depth of an average of 3.5 meters.
Xiong'er River on both sides of the dense residential areas, with the development of the economy, the body and sewage function of the river pollution is becoming more and more serious, coupled with the exhaustion of the source of the Xiong'er River slowly became a stinking river, sludge gully, everyone detested. Although after a number of governance, and ultimately failed to completely solve the problem. Xiong'er River and the same Jinshui River, once became Zhengzhou City, "Longshu ditch", rain stinky water, sunny day stinky, the residents on both sides of the bitter.
In 1989, the government invested 200,000 yuan, dredging Xiong'er River urban section of the serious obstruction of the river. in June 1990, before the big flood, the composition of the Xiong'er River Dredging Project Command, by more than 77,000 people hard labor, to remove more than 230,000 cubic meters of silt, the project was completed to greatly improve the Xiong'er River's drainage capacity. But the pollution problem has not been completely solved.
Metamorphosis: the public's doorstep recreational paradise
The real change came in 1998. 1998 Jinshui River Riverside Park was completed, Zhengzhou City, that began planning for the Xiong'er River governance and the construction of the Riverside Park, the governance project started in 2002, has completed the demolition and relocation, intercepting the sewage, dredging, retaining masonry, rubber dams, supplemental water sources, buildings and other supporting projects, so that the sewage flow, the stench, and so on. Sewage flow, foul-smelling Xiong'er River has been completely changed.
And then Zhengzhou City began the implementation of the comprehensive improvement of the central city and habitat improvement project, but also let the Xiong'er River and many other places up a beautiful transformation.
In order to improve the human environment, from 2003, Zhengzhou City, the Xiong'er River into the central city comprehensive improvement of the important content, to overcome the demolition and relocation, interception of sewage and other problems, the Xiong'er River implementation of the interception of sewage, protection of masonry, demolition and relocation; 2004, the government set up a special command department, the Xiong'er River on both sides of the greening and construction of ancillary facilities, after the rectification of the Xiong'er River has become the old city of an ecological landscape green corridor, the urban section of the river is a beautiful transformation. Ecological landscape green corridor, the urban section of the Riverfront Park is 11.24 kilometers long, of which 1.95 kilometers long East Branch, West Branch 2.13 kilometers long, 6.98 kilometers long dry, 3 scenic spots from west to east distribution of pine winds listening to the waves, railroad culture, bamboo bamboo deep, summer shade can be, Xiong'er traceability, Shang Tao sea of flowers, Mei Ling snow, the soul of transport, Fangyuan Spring, Ziwei Garden, Qinxiang Garden, Gui Xinyuan and other 12 attractions, A total area of 391,600 square meters, green grass on both sides of the river, valuable flowers and trees dotted between, fitness equipment, reasonable layout, the beauty of the two sides of the residents living environment has improved greatly, and has become the Jinshui River, Zhengzhou citizens at home and another band of leisure paradise.
Today's Xiong'er River has become a picturesque place. Both sides of the river are planted with a variety of ornamental trees, with a long braid of weeping willows, there are standing poplar, there are tall and erect pines and cypresses ...... In addition, there are colorful flowers, grasses and shrubs; fitness plaza can be seen everywhere, there are elderly people there shaking the aerial bamboo, twisting rice-planting songs, letting go of their throats to sing the classic oldies; there are young people There are young people playing badminton, aerobics, dancing the melody of youth; there are lovely children, and mom and dad together to feed the pigeons, feet wearing fashionable roller skates happily shuttle in the square. Night falls, the river street lamps are lit up, a couple in the bushes whispering, holding each other in the old couple strolling in the path, the happy family of three strolling along the riverbank ......
Future: connecting the Jinshui River, Xiong'er River, constitute the southern water network
This year's high-profile ten fine Street renovation project, Zhengbian Road Xiong'er River Bridge is also one of the contents of the improvement.
Zhengbian Road Xiong'erhe Bridge was built in the 1980s, dilapidated, limited load-bearing, only four lanes, the capacity is very weak, resulting in the bridge has become the main east-west street to Zhengbian Road east-west traffic "bottleneck". Because it can't be widened directly, the project department of East-West Street - Zhengbian Road decided to build a new bridge. on August 5, the old bridge pipeline began to migrate, in order not to affect the passage of the nearby residents, the project department set up a footbridge next to the bridge. on October 10, it began to be fully closed for construction, and at present, the project is being carried out in a fast-paced manner, and it is expected that the bridge will be opened to traffic by the end of December. The project is now in full swing and is expected to be open to traffic by the end of December.
And the South Canal project, which has already been excavated, has added a splendid touch to the blueprint of the Xiong'er River. The South Canal is located on the south side of the South-North Water Diversion Central Main Drainage Canal, starting from the Jinshui River, connecting to the Xiong'er River to the east, diverting to the Eighteen Mile River and the Seventeen Mile River, and communicating with the Chaohe River in the form of a concealed culvert. According to the plan, after the completion of the South Canal, it will realize the connection between Jinshui River, Xiong'er River and Qili River, divert the flood water of these rivers, and form a coherent water network in the southern part of the city.
In 2008, the municipal government governance Jinshui River, Xiong'er River, "two river basin" of the five projects, on the Xiong'er River accounted for three: along the Xiong'er River drainage system unit household pipe rain sewage diversion project; Xiong'er River, the West Branch of the upstream interception of sewage projects; Xiong'er River (downtown section) along the river along the two sides of the residential areas of the water management project. I believe that in the near future, the once clear Xiong'er River will renew its youth, in undertaking its flood discharge function at the same time, with blue water dress Zhengzhou!
