more than 20,000 public toilets in the city's streets, parks, shopping malls and other places can be queried online in real time with mobile phones for their locations and detailed information. the reporter learned from the municipal urban management committee that by entering keywords such as "public toilet" on the mobile phone, you can navigate to the nearest public toilet on demand. in addition, you can also check online for barrier-free public toilets and "15-minute temporary stop" public toilets that are specially designed for drivers to use the toilet. you can also give a "good or bad review" online about the cleaning status of the public toilets, and the cleaning unit will rectify the problems based on the evaluation.
how to quickly find the nearest public toilet? the reporter learned from the municipal urban management committee that the city has continuously strengthened the guidance and cleaning services of public toilets. more than 20,000 public toilets in the city have been queried in real time on the autonavi map and baidu map app. just enter keywords such as "public toilet" or "public toilet" on your mobile phone or navigation device to navigate to the nearest public toilet.
on september 11, the reporter used a mobile phone to open an online map and test the public toilet navigation function. after entering the keyword "public toilet" in the autonavi map app, the navigation immediately displayed many surrounding public toilets. in addition to public toilets distributed in the streets and alleys, the map can also display public toilets distributed in parks, shopping malls, restaurants and other places. some public toilets further indicate information such as the number of male and female toilets, and some indicate whether they are barrier-free public toilets.
in addition to ordinary public toilets, the navigation page also has a special option for "temporary parking public toilets". in 2020, the municipal urban management committee and the municipal public security bureau traffic management bureau added roadside limited-time parking areas around 206 public toilets where illegal parking is prone to occur. the roadside limited-time parking areas are equipped with limited-time parking signs and "temporary parking for 15 minutes" auxiliary signs, and the relevant point information has been shared with autonavi. citizens can enter the keyword "temporary parking for 15 minutes" through the autonavi map app to query the location of temporary parking public toilets. when the vehicle is parked for more than 15 minutes, the registered driver of the vehicle will receive a text message reminder. if the vehicle fails to leave within 10 minutes of the text message reminder, it will be punished. therefore, the driver has 25 minutes to leave the vehicle temporarily to meet the toilet needs.
after entering keywords such as "public toilet" and "temporary parking" on the navigation platform, nearby public toilets marked with "temporary parking for 15 minutes" will immediately appear on the mobile phone screen. after selecting the corresponding point, the navigation can guide the driver to the public toilet with a temporary parking area. under the guidance of the navigation, the reporter came to a public toilet with temporary parking on the side of the zizhuyuan road. next to the public toilet sign not far from the roadside, there is an additional blue parking sign with the words "p public toilet", and the white auxiliary sign below reads "temporary parking for 15 minutes". after observation, the reporter found that the zizhuyuan road auxiliary road is relatively wide, and even if the driver temporarily parks the motor vehicle on the side of the road, it will not affect normal traffic. however, in more than ten minutes, the reporter saw that a driver parked the motor vehicle on the side of the auxiliary road and strode into the public toilet. a few minutes later, the driver walked out of the public toilet and drove the motor vehicle away. "it's good to be able to find a place to go to the toilet nearby and not have to worry about illegal parking." a taxi driver who parked his car on the side of the road said.
in addition to checking the location of public toilets, the municipal urban management committee has also established a public toilet location update and user evaluation mechanism in conjunction with autonavi and baidu. in the future, as the number of limited-time parking areas around public toilets increases, the latest status of public toilets will be updated in a timely manner. users can also make online evaluations on the navigation app to determine whether they are satisfied with the public toilets. the municipal urban management committee will regularly summarize the evaluations of public toilets, and the public toilet cleaning units will rectify the problems based on the evaluations. in addition, in order to further standardize public toilet signs, the city has carried out a city-wide investigation and rectification of public toilet signs, established a negative list, and rectified a total of 2,386 chinese and english signs and guide signs that are difficult to identify, have special shapes, and are written incorrectly, to ensure that the chinese and english words on public toilet signs are written correctly and are easy to identify.
