Why is it blocked? Hangzhou released the annual traffic operation inventory: more than 1.75 million vehicles were on the road every day in the urban area, and the number of new energy vehicles soared
Qianjiang evening news Hour Journalist Yu Wenwen Correspondent Hang Jianxuan
In 2020, in the urban area of Hangzhou, there will be more than 1.75 million vehicles on the road every day;
In December 2020, the number of new energy cars on the road soared, with an average of one new energy car for every four new vehicles on the road;
The average daily passenger volume of public transport is about 4.2 million, reaching the level of 80% before the epidemic.
Today (January 13th), the market of urban traffic operation in 2020 was officially released. These are the years.The most intuitive data.
In 2020, Hangzhou’s urban traffic operation shows different characteristics from previous years. Simply put, the number of motor vehicles on the road is rising every day, and the growth rate of new energy cars is very large. Since May, the degree of road congestion has intensified. In addition, public transportation is greatly affected by the epidemic. Look at it in four aspects-

Urban daily peak hour congestion index (the larger value in the morning and evening peak hour congestion index)
1. The number of motor vehicles on the road is rising.
Judging from the average number of vehicles driving on the road on weekdays in urban areas (around the city, mainly in the main city), it basically maintained at the level of 1.5-1.6 million vehicles in 2019, with a small increase; In February-March, 2020, it declined due to the epidemic, and returned to the same level in April, and then continued to climb, and now it has exceeded 1.75 million.
On the one hand, the significant increase in the number of motor vehicles on the road is related to the increase in the utilization rate of cars under the influence of the epidemic, on the other hand, it is related to the rapid development of new energy cars in recent years and the increase in the use of foreign license vehicles in Hangzhou. Taking new energy cars as an example, in December 2020, the number of new energy cars on the road increased by 58% year-on-year, with an average of one new energy car for every four new vehicles on the road.

2. Public transport has not recovered from the epidemic.
Judging from the daily average passenger volume of urban "five in one" public transport, it was about 5-6 million passengers in 2019, and it was as low as 0 in February 2020 under strict control measures, and then it gradually recovered and maintained at about 4.2 million passengers, only reaching the level of 80% before the epidemic.

Among them, the passenger flow of rail transit has recovered well. After the opening of new lines such as the back section of Line 5 and Line 16, the overall passenger flow has exceeded the same period of last year, and the average daily passenger flow has exceeded 2 million in October. Conventional public transport is greatly affected by the epidemic, and the average daily passenger traffic continues to hover around 1.7 million passengers, which is only about 60% of the pre-epidemic level.

3. The degree of peak congestion is basically the same year-on-year.
Judging from the peak traffic congestion index, the average index of morning and evening peak hours in 2020 is 6.5 and 6.2 respectively, which is basically the same as that of the previous year.
Among them, the peak congestion index of working days from February to April was significantly lower than that of last year. Since March, commuter traffic has recovered rapidly, and the peak congestion index has rebounded significantly. After May, it has been higher than the same period last year, reaching about 7-8 (last year was around 6-7). The most blocked month in the whole year is September, which is related to multiple factors such as the start of the new school year, the autumn tourist season and the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. Since November-December, the peak congestion index has decreased compared with the same period of last year.

4. Congestion increased during the peak period, and the phenomenon of congestion increased significantly before and after the peak period of expressway.
During the peak period, all kinds of travel activities recovered relatively slowly after the epidemic, and only in June did they return to the same level of last year. The congestion index in the peak period from September to December was significantly higher than that in the same period of last year, which was related to the restrained rebound in travel demand in the first half of the year and the increase in car utilization rate. During the peak period, the number of vehicles on the road also increased significantly, with a year-on-year increase of 7.8%, reflecting that more citizens choose cars to travel during off-peak periods under the influence of the epidemic.

Among them, the congestion of expressways has intensified significantly before and after the peak hours, and the degree of congestion rebound after the morning peak hours has surpassed that during the morning peak hours, and it has also reached a moderate congestion level in the afternoon hours. In December, the congestion index of expressways at 9:00-10:00, 15:00-16:30 and 18:30-20:00 on weekdays was 8.5, 6.8 and 7.0 respectively, up 9.7%, 6.5% and 11.8% respectively.
