2065438+In July 2006, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Transport and China Railway Corporation jointly issued the Medium and Long-term Railway Network Planning. As one of the projects in this plan, the trend of Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway has attracted much attention.
The Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway, also known as the Beijing-Kowloon Passenger Dedicated Line, starts from Beijing in the north and ends in Kowloon, Hong Kong in the south, with a total length of more than 2,400 kilometers. The line construction adopts the method of building in sections around the country and finally connecting the lines. Among them, the section before reaching Hengshui is Xiong Jing Railway, and the EIA has already started. After leaving Beijing from Beijing New Airport Station, it passes through Langfang and enters xiong'an new area.
Official website of China Railway Design Group Co., Ltd. shows that the Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway line from Xiong 'an to Shangqiu is Hengshui, Liaocheng, Puyang, Heze and Shangqiu. At present, in the proposal recommended by China Railway Corporation, the Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway will set up a station in yanggu county, Shandong Province, which is at the junction of Lu Yu, and set up two more stations, namely Liangshan in Jining and Yuncheng in Heze, without going through Puyang.
On August 8th, Puyang Railway Construction Coordination Office issued an "Open Letter to Netizens", saying that Puyang Municipal Government had made a special report to Henan Provincial Government on August 7th, and the latter had arranged relevant departments to communicate with railway departments.
According to the planning department of China Railway Corporation, the Zhengzhou-Jinan high-speed railway starts from Jinan, Shandong Province in the east, passes through Liaocheng and Puyang, and reaches Zhengzhou, Henan Province in the west. It is an important high-speed rail passage from Shandong Peninsula to the Central Plains and Southwest China in the long-term railway planning network, and is connected with the Beijing-Hong Kong high-speed rail, Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed rail and Beijing-Shanghai high-speed rail under construction. A number of interviewees said that with the roll-out of China's high-speed rail network, the ability of high-speed rail resources to transform into political and economic benefits has been increasingly recognized.
A member of the expert group of the National Development and Reform Commission and the former president of the Research Institute of the Ministry of Railways told me that in recent years, there is indeed crazy competition for high-speed rail in some places. There are two reasons for this. First, some officials pursue political achievements and blindly compare; Second, many cadres and masses don't really understand the high-speed rail and think it is omnipotent.
The impact of high-speed rail on economy, people flow and logistics, city image promotion and real estate industry is obvious. Based on these factors, local officials have the appeal of relying on high-speed rail to improve their political achievements.
The above-mentioned person in charge of the former research institute of the Ministry of Railways, who asked not to be named, has participated in the review meeting of the feasibility study report organized by the National Development and Reform Commission for many times. He said that at the review meeting, the differences and contradictions between the high-speed rail construction party and the local government in line selection and site selection often occur. On one occasion, local government officials accused the expert group of "racial discrimination" at a review meeting, which impressed him deeply.
In addition to Puyang, many places are striving for opportunities in setting up the Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway station. 20 16 During the National People's Congress, Bi, deputy to the National People's Congress and mayor of Lu 'an City, Anhui Province, suggested that the Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway should set up a station through Lu 'an and enter Jiangxi from Fuyang through Lu 'an.
In the battle for high-speed rail, the competition between neighboring cities is more intense. In the Jingzhou-Jingmen high-speed rail competition in Hubei Province, Jingzhou Changjiang Entrepreneurs Chamber of Commerce attracted tens of thousands of people to participate and sign. The Chamber of Commerce put forward in the proposal: "Without high-speed rail, towns are scattered pearls; Through the high-speed rail, the town is the pearl on the necklace. "
In addition to the demands for political achievements, the pressure from the people is also a reason for politicians to fight for high-speed rail. When the planning of Shanghai-Kunming high-speed railway was made, the competition between Shaoyang City and Loudi City in Hunan Province was very fierce. 65438+ Wan Shaoyang people shouted "Without high-speed rail, the secretary and mayor were dismissed". Finally, the Shanghai-Kunming high-speed railway set up stations in two cities at the same time.
A participating official in Shaoyang later told reporters, "At that time, the meeting of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee was held every day, and we attended it every time. The meeting didn't end until 11 o'clock in the evening. We continued to write documents and organize materials all night. "
The above-mentioned member of the expert group of the National Development and Reform Commission and the former head of the Research Institute of the Ministry of Railways said that the selection of high-speed railway station should consider the reasonable setting of road network planning nodes, regional development planning, the city's position and role in the region, passenger flow, other traffic passages around the city and other factors. In addition, we should also consider the impact of high-speed rail on running speed and travel time.
Railway route selection and station setting are the key points of railway design, involving a wide range and many influencing factors. The evaluation expert group organized by the National Development and Reform Commission should conduct a comprehensive inspection, listen to the opinions of local governments and the masses extensively, communicate and coordinate with local governments seriously at the evaluation meeting, take care of the interests of all parties as much as possible, and reach a consensus. If there are differences of opinion, they will be truthfully reported to the National Development and Reform Commission, which will coordinate and reply.
In view of the statement that the design scheme of high-speed rail should be more transparent, this expert thinks it is very difficult, mainly because it involves a wide range, too much content and is very professional. If you can't fully understand it, it will cause misunderstanding.
Zhong Zhangdui, the chief expert of China Railway GSM-R and a professor of Beijing Jiaotong University, thinks that it is impossible to solve all the problems in one line. The future development direction of high-speed rail is to spread the intercity railway construction from line to network by increasing investment to meet the needs of more cities.
According to the government work report of the National People's Congress from 2065438 to 2007, China will invest 800 billion yuan in railway construction this year. The 13th Five-Year Development Plan of Modern Comprehensive Transportation System issued by the State Council in February this year puts forward that by 2020, China's high-speed railway will cover more than 80% cities with permanent population of 6,543,800+0,000.
