CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- Restricted by the traffic and other objective factors, some roads in Shapingba District of Chongqing are loaded with obvious traffic pressure, especially the single intersection turnaround, resulting in frequent turnaround vehicles waiting in a long queue and causing traffic congestion easily. In this regard, the traffic patrol in Shapingba District made full investigation on the spot, actively learned the advanced experience from all over China, and took the lead in implementing the optimization of traffic organization of “multi-vehicle turnaround” in Chongqing, greatly improving the traffic capacity of and effectively revitalizing the overall regional traffic efficiency.

At present, police in Shapingba District have sorted out and released the positions and precautions of the newly implemented “multi-vehicle turnaround”, and asked drivers to adapt to the new changes of traffic rule as soon as possible.

Shinianpan Intersection of Xiaolongkan Main Street

At the intersection of Shinianpan of Xiaolongkan Main Street, the turnaround lane of Xiaolongkan towards Tianxingqiao is set as a “Multi-vehicle turnaround” lane with two parking spaces, which can allow two vehicles to turn around at the same time at one time, effectively alleviating the problem of parking queues at the intersection.

Huangjueyuan Intersection of Shixiaolu

At the intersection, after removing the central green belt in both directions of the intersection, it was changed into a driveway, and the new driveway was set up as a “multi-vehicle turnaround” lane with 4 lanes in the upstream (from Xiaolongkan to Gaomiaocun) direction and 2 lanes in the downstream (from Gaomiaocun to Xiaolongkan) direction, changing the original turnaround lane into a straight-ahead lane, both enhancing the efficiency of the intersection vehicle turnaround and improving the efficiency of straight-through traffic.

Wal-Mart Intersection at Fengtian Avenue

There is a great demand for vehicles entering and leaving Southwest Hospital to turn around at this intersection, but the efficiency of turning around at this intersection is not satisfying. In order to ease the traffic pressure and facilitate people’s travel, the Southwest Hospital of this intersection has set up a “multi-vehicle turnaround” lane with three parking spaces towards Fengmingshan, which can allow three vehicles to turn around at the same time, greatly increasing the efficiency of vehicle turnaround at one time.

Jinghui Road Intersection of Shengde Road

At this intersection, the turnaround from Shengde Road to Jinghui Road is set as a “multi-vehicle turnaround” lane with 2 parking spaces, which basically solves the problem of the backlog of vehicles for turning around at this intersection.

The police reminded that when driving through the intersection of “multi-vehicle turnaround”, drivers should pay attention to observe signs and markings and wait in line. Vehicles that need to turn around this intersection should pay attention to the guidance of overhead signs and ground markings. At the intersection, they should wait in line according to the order of turnaround parking spaces “1, 2, 3…”, and strictly observe the orderly passage of signal lights. When turning around, vehicles should strictly follow the instructions of traffic signal lights. On the premise of ensuring safety, multiple vehicles can turn around at the same time.
