1. Mass Rapid Transit. MRT is the backbone of urban public transport system, covering a wide range. MRT undertakes most of the passenger flow on the frequent traffic trunk lines connecting major regions, ensuring the efficiency and stability of the macro operation of the whole traffic system.
Second, urban light rail transit (LRT). LRT is the supplement and expansion of MRT, which is mainly used to connect hub stations and transfer hub stations with major residential and commercial areas to realize real door-to-door traffic. The whole system can run automatically, and the unmanned light rail locomotive can reduce the cost, improve the operation efficiency and greatly reduce the overall traffic business time of travelers.
3. Bus and ferry system. The main function of the bus ferry system is to undertake short-distance traffic within the region and between adjacent regions. All bus * * * (electric) vehicles can adopt automatic bus ic card and automatic toll collection system when conditions permit, so as to improve operational efficiency. Bus IC cards can also be used for subway and light rail transportation. In addition, buses, ferry hubs, important stops and docks can provide bus information services (arrival time of the next bus) through the bulletin board system, which is convenient for passengers to choose routes and modes of transportation.
Fourth, the taxi system. Taxi system is used to fill the gap between public transportation and private transportation, and it is an indispensable part of forming a complete public transportation system. At present, there are about 12000 taxis in Wuhan. If 80% taxis are equipped with GPS, it will be more convenient for unified management, effectively avoid the no-load rate and improve economic benefits.
Extended data:
In big cities, tunnels are mainly built underground, tracks are laid, and a large number of passengers are transported by electric express trains, which is called subway for short. In the suburbs of cities, subway lines can often extend to the ground or viaduct. Subway traffic does not occupy street area and interfere with ground traffic, so it is also called "off-street traffic".
MRT is not only a public transport, but also accelerates our movement in the city. As an extension of urban public space, people read, meditate, enjoy the scenery and talk in the MRT system, and get lost at the corner, buy tickets and meet each other. Quickly shuttle between urban landscapes and feel the fluctuation of urban breathing. People-to-people, people and cities have the possibility of deeper and direct dialogue.
The special architectural form of MRT combined with high-tech transportation not only enriches the image of the city, but also serves as the endorsement index of a city's "modernization". Consistent with the rhythm of urban life, its historical tone and humanistic customs have become a symbol of the city's unique style.
