The composition about high-speed rail is about 350 words.

China will enter the era of "8-hour life circle"

The realistic version of "20 12" is not destined to be the "end of the world" described in the movie. At least in China, this will be the day when the "high-speed rail era" will come in full swing.

This year, the passenger dedicated line10.3 million kilometers will be completed and put into operation, and high-speed railways from Beijing to Shanghai, Shanghai to Wuhan, Chengdu and Kunming will be built and opened to traffic. The "four vertical and four horizontal" passenger dedicated line has been fully completed and opened to traffic, with the interval trunk line10.5 million kilometers and the double-track line10.0 million kilometers, which will form the eastern, central and western parts of China. At this point, most of China will be within the coverage of high-speed railway and intercity rail transit.

This year, 804 new passenger stations will be put into operation. The national railway mileage will reach 1 10000 km, the passenger dedicated line with a speed of more than 200 km/h will reach 13000 km, and more than 800 emus with a speed of 200 km/h will pass through the vast territory.

life

Fast pace changes slow life

The arrival of the high-speed rail era has not only changed the spatial distance between cities, but also brought about great changes in the old life rhythm and concepts of people in different regions.

"Simply put, the far-reaching impact of this change is no less than the opening of the Shinkansen in Japan and the East-West Railway artery in the United States." Economists believe that with the revolutionary progress of transportation mode, the fast-paced lifestyle of eastern coastal cities will enter the central and western regions more quickly. At the same time, the collision and blending of ideas between developed and backward regions will inevitably occur. Due to the acceleration of the free migration and circulation of population, the old pace of life in many places will be "forced" to conform to the fast pace of the oriental metropolis.

Huang Qiang, chief expert of china academy of railway sciences, asserted: "By 20 12 years, it will be as easy to take a train as a bus, and basically everyone can go where they want to go."

trade

Regional barriers will disappear completely.

"China has invested a lot of money in high-speed rail construction, which will have a great impact on the future economic development. With the reduction of transportation costs, the division of labor and exchange will inevitably become more developed. This will lay a good foundation for China's economic integration. " Zhang, dean of Guanghua School of Management, Peking University, believes that the advent of the high-speed rail era will break the current local protection and regional barriers in the domestic market.

Zhang said that the flow of production factors brought by high-speed traffic also has the natural requirement of breaking through administrative barriers and breaking the protection of economic places.

High-speed rail will not only bring convenience and efficiency to urban economy, but also bring a brand-new space-time environment and great flow of manpower, technology and capital. In the era of high-speed rail, the "same city effect" and "complementary resources" between regions will become more and more obvious. Just like when the Shinkansen was built in Japan, the economy there will certainly develop.

compete

"Third Party" will rewrite the rules of the game in the transportation industry.

The most sensitive to the impact of high-speed rail is the civil aviation industry. The competition pattern of railways, highways and civil aviation has initially taken shape.

12 15. In response to the opening of Wuhan-Guangzhou high-speed railway, China Southern Airlines announced the opening of an "air express line" between Guangzhou, Wuhan and Changsha. China Southern Airlines will have 32 flights between Guangzhou, Wuhan and Changsha every day, providing passengers with "bus-style" convenient aviation services. Compared with the ticket price of Wuhan-Guangzhou high-speed railway in 490 yuan, CAAC has made a special ticket, the lowest price is 190 yuan. "There is no progress without competition, and there is no progress without competition." Zhou Tianyong, deputy director of the Research Office of the Central Party School, believes that the significance of Wuhan-Guangzhou high-speed railway lies not in the level of fares, but in the possibility of providing people with another choice, which has enhanced the competition in this industry and is a good thing for ordinary people.

According to industry experts, high-speed rail has obvious advantages in midway transportation, with short travel time, large transportation capacity and high punctuality rate. Aviation, on the other hand, has shown its advantages of rapidity and convenience in passenger transportation over 65,438+0,000 kilometers.
