The whole process runs through the Sichuan-Zhejiang Industrial Cooperation Park, Yuanjiaba Industrial Park, Wangjiaying Industrial Park, and Xiaxi Logistics Park.

To ensure the safety of passers-by
Cancel the right lane straight pass instruction
At about 9 o'clock yesterday morning, the reporter drove from the Lingjiang Toll Station to the Old City Australian Aid Bridge for on-the-spot experience. This section is about 7 kilometers and has 6 lanes in both directions. It took 15 minutes and there were a total of 11 traffic lights. Under the traffic lights at each intersection, the traffic signs clearly stated that 60 km/h for large cars and 80 km/h for small cars. The speed was measured throughout the journey. When encountering a red light, all vehicles must stop and wait. Only the right lane at the traffic light at Wufo Temple can go straight under the red light.
In this regard, the relevant person in charge of the Order Section of the Municipal Traffic Police Detachment said that Xibin Road is a traffic arterial road with many vehicles merging on both sides. According to the requirements for setting lights, in order to avoid traffic accidents and congestion, roads with too many openings need to be set up signal light.
The rightmost lane of Xibin Road from Yuanjiaba to Old Town does not cut into the lane laterally. In the past, you could go straight when the red light was on to ensure safety. However, during the implementation process, passers-by reported that straight vehicles were not polite when crossing the zebra crossing with a green light. There are certain safety risks for pedestrians. In order to ensure the safety of passing pedestrians, the right lane pass instruction was canceled three years ago.
