I wonder how blocked it is to replace Beijing as the most blocked city.
CCTV News:Yesterday, the Traffic Analysis Report of Major Cities in China in the Third Quarter of 2016 was released. On the list of "China’s blocked cities", Beijing ranked third, Shanghai ranked 11th and Shenzhen ranked 15th. The number one is actually ha! Er! Bin!

Seeing this result, the people of Harbin were not calm, so they wrote a poem:
Qinyuanchun Harbin traffic jam
Harbin scenery, thousands of miles of traffic, Wan Li crowds. Outside the road, the car shop is like an ant; On Zhongshan Road, the whistle whistled. The driver is fidgety, his bladder is about to burst and he has nowhere to pee. Watching the sunset and the moon rising, we haven’t crossed the bridge yet. The traffic is so bad that countless riders are attracted to the bus. Sighing Mercedes-Benz BMW, it’s hard to escape, Land Rover Raptor, nowhere to get mad. A generation of tianjiao, Lamborghini, tearfully watching the electric motorcycle overtake the car. Let bygones be bygones, whether it’s romantic or bus ~
How blocked is Harbin?





Road congestion in second-and third-tier cities is becoming increasingly serious.
Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai and Chengdu, which have been included in the list for many times before, have withdrawn from the top ten, while a large number of second-and third-tier cities have continued to rise, even surpassing first-tier cities.

Analysis of Gaode Map Traffic Big Data Research Team,With the continuous growth of car ownership in second-and third-tier cities and the superposition of external factors such as road construction and rainfall, the problem of road congestion in China is becoming increasingly serious, and the phenomenon of "first-tier cities are saturated and second-and third-tier cities catch up" appears.
Characteristics of Urban Congestion in China Hangzhou was named as the "Model City of Congestion Control"
This season’s report also made a specific analysis of 100 cities across the country, not only describing the congestion status of specific cities through traffic big data, but also "dissecting" the reasons for the increase or decrease of congestion.
The most blocked city — — Harbin
In addition to the first traffic jam in Harbin this season, the research team also found that Harbin is the most blocked in the country in the morning and evening. The data shows that the morning peak in Harbin is the most congested time in the country from 6: 00 to 7: 00; 17 o’clock in the evening peak is also the most blocked in the country. Presumably, Harbin commuters feel the deepest.
The city with heavy load on the expressway — — Beijing
This season, the city with the most blocked expressways in China is Beijing, and the peak congestion delay index is as high as 2.24 (the greater the delay index means the more congested, and the delay index is equal to 2, which means that the passing time of unit mileage is twice as long as that under unobstructed conditions), and the expressway in Beijing is slow and congested for 14 hours on weekdays and 9 hours on holidays.
The city with missing main road construction — — Guiyang
By analyzing the ratio of congestion mileage to urban road mileage in major cities in China, it is found that Guiyang, Cangzhou, Nanyang, Handan and other cities have a very high proportion of congestion mileage. By analyzing the characteristics of these cities, it is found that the main reason for the high proportion of congestion is that the congestion mileage of these cities is concentrated on the secondary and branch roads, which also reflects the lack of expressway and main road construction in these cities.
Self-driving city — — Kunming
The traffic volume of Kunming increased obviously in July, and the overall traffic volume of the city increased by about 19%, which was related to the fiery go on road trip in Yunnan. The roads with less than 0.3% of the mileage of the Second Ring Road in Kunming bear more than 26% of the city’s travel demand, and the uneven traffic distribution has also caused urban congestion.
City of Road Construction — — Lanzhou
The terrain of Lanzhou stands up like an hourglass, and the east and west sides are large, but the middle part is narrow, which leads to the weak penetration and correlation between the two areas, and most vehicles are over-assembled, forming a bottleneck of congestion. In addition, from the second quarter of 2016 to the third quarter, Lanzhou’s urban road mileage accounted for more than 2%, ranking third in the country; At the same time, the proportion of road mileage is the largest among the top 10 blocked cities. The research team believes that extensive road construction will affect the current situation of surrounding roads, which will aggravate urban congestion.
Tackling the Blocking Model City — — Hangzhou
The traditional "blocking the city" Hangzhou ranked 72nd this season, a sharp drop. From the congestion trend in Hangzhou in 2016, it can be seen that the congestion in Hangzhou showed a substantial and sustained relief in July, which benefited from the "two metallurgy and one whole special action" of Hangzhou traffic police.
From the time of action, there were five centralized and unified actions from May 30 to July 4, followed by the most stringent rectification in July, which greatly eased the urban congestion and made the traffic conditions close to free flow and unusually smooth. In addition, Hangzhou has opened a number of expressways, which has changed many "broken roads" and effectively alleviated congestion. Therefore, Hangzhou is definitely a "model" of urban congestion this season.
The city of hard work — — Chongqing
According to the data, Chongqing is the most congested city in China at 8: 00 am, and the congestion level is far ahead of other cities. At the same time, it is 9.1% more congested than Beijing, which can be described as the hardest city to go to work.
The city of hard work — — Guangzhou
The data also shows that Guangzhou has the most traffic jams in the country for six hours from afternoon to night, which can be described as a city with hard work.
