Friends who have lived in the countryside should still have an impression. When I was a child, the roads in the country were bumpy and sunny. Once it rains, the road becomes slippery and difficult to walk. On the road of stagnant water, you can't tell which is stagnant water and which is a big pit. If you are not careful, you will fall and be covered in mud. When I was a child, everyone went to school and my parents went to the market town. I should have encountered this embarrassing situation. At that time, everyone often got together to discuss when the road in the village could be repaired.
With the development of the country and the improvement of people's quality of life, everyone's wish has come true now. In recent years, the state has increased investment in this area, and the original bumpy road has long been turned into a smooth cement road. No matter what the weather is like, we don't have to worry about the original embarrassing scene anymore.
There is a smooth cement road at the door of every household, which brings great convenience to friends living in the countryside. The same is true of rural roads. In recent years, people always like to travel when they are not busy, but before reaching some scenic spots, they often have to take some country roads. When they went to road trip, they were in a good mood, but they didn't like to see that it would be difficult to pass if they met a car on a narrow country road.
If there is a traffic accident ahead, it will be even more troublesome, and it may pass in a few hours. You may wonder, the state has given so much subsidies to build roads in rural areas, why not make the roads wider and only build 3.5 meters? The width of a general family car is about 1.6 meters, and the road width of 3.5 meters really tests everyone's driving skills. Today, we will explain the reasons behind this phenomenon.
In fact, most of the roads are built by the state, but this is not all, and a small part needs to be built by local people. Generally speaking, the investment cost of each household is different, and the sharing method is basically the same everywhere, according to the number of family members. Families with a large population need more when building roads, and vice versa.
In this case, it is difficult to collect fees from families when repairing roads. Because in the early years, the average rural family was not rich, it was very difficult to support their children's daily life and study, and it was even more difficult to pay for road construction. Therefore, considering the local difficulties, the government only repaired the road to a width of 3.5 meters, which solved the traffic problem to a certain extent and did not cause too much burden to the family.
However, with the improvement of people's living standards in recent years, transportation has also developed rapidly. In the past, bicycles and electric cars were the mainstay of every household. Later, every household bought motorcycles. Now, cars are more popular. Therefore, the current traffic pressure makes the 3.5-meter-wide rural road that was originally enough too narrow. However, it is still worth paying attention to that the quality of road construction in some places is really not very good, and the pavement has become unrecognizable and bumpy in just a few years. In this regard, relevant departments still need to strengthen supervision
As for the problem that the road surface is too narrow, it is really not that the country has narrowed the road, but that our living standards have improved too fast. Our country is concerned about people's livelihood, and the quality of life of farmers has always been concerned, so the country will definitely continue to increase investment in this area in the future. It won't be long before you can see brand-new country roads again. Then don't worry about the inconvenience of meeting the bus. You can take a walk in the beautiful countryside and enjoy the scenery that you can't see in a big city.
