On August 22nd, the 3rd Global Intelligent Vehicle Frontier Summit officially opened. At the summit, Dr. Zhong Zhihua, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and vice president of the academy, proposed the Wisdom Vehicle Column Traffic System.
The traffic system is mainly designed to solve urban traffic congestion. Unlike the subway and light rail, the system utilizes specialized roads for vehicles. The specialized roads consist of main lanes, entrance and exit ramps, and stopping ports, which can achieve point-to-point transportation for passengers, eliminating the need for frequent stops like the subway and light rail. This is done to increase the average vehicle speed and thereby improve urban transportation efficiency.
Currently, the project has been tested at the Changsha Xiangjiang Intelligent Networked Vehicle Testing Field, and Zhong Zhihua says that the results are excellent.
