New Delhi. Whether you leave your house in the morning or in the evening, you find traffic jams on the roads of your city. Many of our hours are wasted every day by getting stuck in traffic jams and important work also gets delayed. But do you know why there is no traffic jam on the roads of China despite having more vehicles than our country? One reason for this is the wide roads and better traffic management system in Chinese cities, but you really would not know the other thing.
Actually, China's traffic management system is praised all over the world. The reason is that despite having about 32 crore vehicles on the roads, people there do not have to get stuck in traffic jams. Let us tell you how this is possible…
sliding divider in china
Wherever you go in our country, you will find fixed dividers made of cement on the roads. This separates the traffic on both sides of the road, but if there are too many vehicles, it also becomes the cause of jam.
Unlike India, sliding dividers are installed on the roads of China which can be shifted to one side of the road to create more space for vehicles. People managing traffic keep sliding these dividers from time to time to make space for vehicles which helps in getting rid of traffic jams. When the traffic becomes normal, these dividers are placed back at their original place. The traffic police does this work with the help of specially designed vehicles.
These are the reasons why there is a jam
Traffic jams have become a big problem in most of the big cities of India. Every day, news of traffic jams keep coming from cities like Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. Due to traffic jams, people take hours to travel a few kilometers. In the last few years, the work of building roads and highways has been done rapidly in the country, but there has not been much improvement in the traffic jam situation in the cities.
The main reason for traffic jams in India is encroachment. This reduces the space for vehicles to move on the road and leads to traffic jams. On the other hand, construction work on the roads also causes traffic jams for drivers. In some cases, road accidents also cause traffic jams. If this technique of China is adopted in Indian cities too, then the problem of traffic jams can be solved.
