According to reports, recently, the National Development and Reform Commission held the director of the director of the city to review and approve the third urban rail transit construction plan of Changchun City, Jilin Province.According to the news, on July 17, the National Development and Reform Commission re -launched the approval of urban rail transit planning.This is the first approval project for the National Development and Reform Commission to suspend the approval of urban rail construction planning for one year.
The reason for the restart of the urban rail approval is nothing more than the following:
First, since this year, infrastructure investment has slowed from two digits at the beginning of the year to 5.7%from January-July. Therefore, recently, the State Council Executive Meeting and the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee have put forward requirements for shortcomings in the infrastructure field.As one of the large projects of infrastructure, urban rail transportation construction is bound to meet the requirements of the central level for investing in economic development.
Second, from the perspective of industrial levels, the urban rail transit industry has a wide range of industries and a high degree of correlation. Its correlation effect can effectively promote the development of the overall national economy.Moreover, urban rail investment can reasonably drive the development of related industries such as construction, electronics, electromechanical, and finance.This is especially important for China in China.
Third, with the development of urban agglomerations and new urbanization, and many large cities have occurred urban diseases such as congestion, urban rail transit, as an environmental protection and large capacity of transportation.Important means and urgent needs of traffic hub cities.
One year ago in August 2017, the National Development and Reform Commission suspended the approval of urban rail transit construction planning.At that time, it was mainly based on the suspension of the Baotou subway at that time, as well as the central financial conference and economic conference proposed to prevent local systematic debt risks.At that time, the Development and Reform Commission pressed the suspension key to the construction of the local urban rail, which was regarded as the reflection on the "Great Leap Forward Andrdquo;
For a long time, China's urban rail construction plan is in accordance with the "Notice on Strengthening the Management of Cities' Fast Rail Transit Construction" issued by the General Office of the State Council in 2003.The urbanization rate has already increased from 39.09%in 2002 to 58.52%in 2017, and the GDP level has also increased significantly.
According to the standards of "No. 81 Andrdquo; and more and more cities have met the standards for applying for urban rails. In addition to urban rails as large infrastructure projects, it can not only drive local economic growth, increase taxes, but also drive the city.House prices along the rail rose, and eventually increased the fiscal revenue of local land. Therefore, the city rail followed and "Great Leap Forward Andrdquo; began.
The suspension of approval last year was actually reflection and adjustment of urban rail standards in the past 15 years.On July 13, 2018, the General Office of the State Council issued the "Opinions on Further Strengthening the Management of Urban Rail Transit Planning and Construction", also known as Andrdquo;Related economic indicators with light rail cities, and strict requirements on the implementation of funds, and stipulated the risk prevention mechanism.
This time the National Development and Reform Commission restarted the approval of the urban rail rail. After the introduction of "Document 52 Andrdquo;; The construction of the urban rails is required to comply with the basic principles of Andrdquo; in an orderly development of Andrdquo.Essence
Only this can truly allow the urban rail transit planning construction to move towards a healthy and sustainable development path, so that urban rail transit to better meet the safety, fast, and comfortable travel needs of citizens, rather than becoming a face -to -face project that was simply followed.
