the construction of rail transit in urban areas is accelerating, and "cross-city subways" will form a concentrated opening wave in the next few years.
on september 29, the chengdu rail transit ziyang line was officially opened to traffic. it is the first cross-city rail transit line in sichuan province and one of the important landmark projects in the chengdu metropolitan area to create a "metropolitan area on rails". according to the plan, by 2027, the chengde-meizi area will become the first urban area in the country to operate municipal railways from the central city to all regional sub-central cities.
up to now, the national development and reform commission has approved 14 metropolitan areas, and the construction of these metropolitan areas has planned a number of cross-city rail transit. therefore, as these projects advance, dozens of cross-city rail transit lines will be built in these metropolitan areas in the next few years.
be the first to build a metropolitan area on the rails
the ziyang line, which opened to traffic on september 29, starts from futian station of chengdu rail transit line 18 and ends at ziyang north station. it has a total length of 38.7 kilometers. it uses 4-section a-type cars and has a total of 7 stations (including 1 reserved station). ), with a design speed of 160 km/h and a total investment of 12.903 billion yuan.
this is the first cross-city railway built in the chengdu metropolitan area. the chengdu metropolitan area covers the four cities of chengdu, deyang, meishan and ziyang. the "chengdu metropolitan area development plan" proposes to accelerate the construction of chengdu to ziyang city (suburban) railway, and plans to build chengdu to deyang, chengdu to meishan and other chengdu metropolitan area ( suburban) railway to promote the urban integration of chengde, meizi and zi.
the opening and operation of the ziyang line marks an important step in the realization of the "two rings and three beams" rail transit commuter network in the chengdu metropolitan area. construction of the chengmei line and chengde line will start in 2022 and 2023 respectively, and are expected to be completed in 2026 and 2027 respectively. therefore, officials predict that by 2027, the chengde-meizi area is expected to become the first metropolitan area in the country to operate municipal railways from the central city to all regional sub-central cities.
in 2008, the cooperation between chengdu and ziyang was launched with the joint construction of "one road, one lake and one park". in 2010, ziyang shared chengdu's "028" telephone area code. in 2016, the integration of chengdu and ziyang was fully launched. the completion and opening of the cross-city rail transit line will provide a more efficient choice for people in the two cities to travel, facilitate the interaction of passenger flow between the two places, and promote the life of the two places in the same city to a new height.
the person in charge of the relevant departments of the ziyang municipal government stated that the opening and operation of the ziyang rail transit line will promote the "integration of four networks" of trunk railways, intercity railways, municipal railways and rail transit, further achieve "zero distance" transfers and integrated services, and will effectively improve the convenience and gain of traveling within the city.
not only that, ziyang will use rail transit to amplify the industrial agglomeration function, connect the airport economic zone, high-tech zone and chengdu eastern new district, and accelerate the construction of chengdu-ziyang airport economic and industrial belt, chengdu tianfu airport economic zone, chengdu-ziyang collaborative open corridor and other developments platform, taking industrial urbanization as the main direction to promote the construction of the chengdu metropolitan area, giving full play to its own advantages, strengthening and improving special industrial chains such as dental medical equipment, natural gas, sports shoes, and prepared dishes, and actively seizing hydrogen energy, robots, and commercial aerospace and other new industry tracks.
on september 29, at the large-scale interview event "looking at the city along the track" organized by the sichuan provincial leading group office for promoting the integration development of chengde, meizi and ziyang the physical distance and time speed between the two cities are of great significance to promoting the development of urban integration between chengdu, germany, meizi and zi and improving the core energy level of the chengdu metropolitan area.
"cross-city subways" will be put into operation intensively
in 2019, the national development and reform commission issued the "guiding opinions on cultivating and developing modern urban areas" (hereinafter referred to as the "opinions"). the "opinions" clarified "the spatial form of urbanization with the one-hour commuting circle as the basic scope" and explored the center of the urban area. urban rail transit should be appropriately extended to surrounding cities (towns).
the "opinions" also proposed that we should vigorously develop urban (suburban) railways in metropolitan areas, and prioritize the use of existing resources to operate urban (suburban) trains through reinforcement of existing railways, reconstruction and expansion of local lines, and renovation of station buildings and platforms; build new ones in an orderly manner urban (suburban) railways integrate urban (suburban) railway operations into the urban public transportation system.
therefore, building a one-hour commuting circle through urban railways is one of the main measures to create a metropolitan area on the rails. not only that, judging from the tendency of railway construction policies, compared with high-speed rail and subway, the policy direction of urban railway is relatively loose. the former two policies tend to be strict control, while the latter are encouraging and supportive.
in july 2018, the general office of the state council issued the "opinions on further strengthening the planning and construction management of urban rail transit". in march 2021, the national development and reform commission and other departments issued the "opinions on further improving railway planning and construction." these two documents will significantly improve urban rail transit and railway construction standards.
however, in december 2020, the "opinions on promoting the accelerated development of urban (suburban) railways in metropolitan areas" jointly issued by the national development and reform commission and others proposed that the development of urban (suburban) railways will be important for optimizing the layout of urban functions and promoting the development of large, medium and small cities and small towns. coordinated development and expansion of effective investment have the effect of killing multiple birds with one stone and are conducive to giving full play to the radiating and leading role of central cities, expanding the supply of public transportation services, effectively alleviating urban traffic congestion, and promoting the development of new urbanization.
therefore, in the construction promotion schedule of various urban areas, the construction of cross-city rail transit is often a leading and landmark project.
in 2021, the nanjing metropolitan area became the first metropolitan area to be approved and the first inter-provincial metropolitan area. on december 28 of that year, the first phase of the nanjing-ma'anshan city (suburban) railway (nanjing section), the nanjing-chuhe city (suburban) railway, and the nanjing-yizheng line (including the yangzhou extension line) city (suburban) railway (excluding the construction of the third line across the river has started intensively.
at present, this kind of "cross-city subway" is on the rise. on may 26 this year, the guangzhou-foshan south ring road and foshan-dongguan intercity were officially opened for operation, and were connected with the already-opened foshan-zhaozhou intercity and dongguan-huizhou intercity to achieve "four-line connectivity" operation, forming a 258-kilometer-long, horizontal line. the transportation artery spanning 39 stations in 5 cities has also become the longest "subway" in china.
not only that, based on the news released by the national development and reform commission and local governments, from 2021 to now, the national development and reform commission has successively approved nanjing, fuzhou, chengdu, changzhutan, xi'an, chongqing, wuhan, shenyang, hangzhou, zhengzhou, guangzhou, shenzhen, qingdao there are 14 "national-level metropolitan areas" including jinan and jinan. each metropolitan area will build several cross-city rail transit lines. therefore, in the next few years, dozens of cross-city rail lines will be built, and "cross-city subway" will become a common practice.
