In Lijiang, parking has become a big problem. Recently, the first multi-story parking lot in Lijiang was completed and put into use at the Lijiang Gaoke Passenger Transport Station, effectively alleviating the parking difficulties at the station. At the same time, it has also attracted many neighborhoods and units to come for visits.
Before Completion: The entrance was often blocked
According to Tan Jianchun, the station master of Gaoke Passenger Transport Station, in addition to parking in and out of passenger vehicles, the parking lot of the station also needs to accommodate vehicles from the Lijiang City Urban Passenger Transport Office, Lijiang Local Maritime Bureau, and Lijiang City Transportation Engineering and Cost Management Office.
"Nearby there are two kindergartens, Qixing and Xinmiao. When it's time for the afternoon dismissal, the entrance is blocked, and the passenger vehicles cannot enter, and the vehicles inside cannot exit," Tan Jianchun said.
In addition, the parking lot at the station is a public parking lot for the citizens. Usually, citizens will park their vehicles in the parking lot when they come to do errands, making the parking space even smaller.
After Completion: Attracted more than ten units to visit
Entering the entrance of Gaoke Passenger Transport Station, the reporter saw a three-story multi-story parking garage on the right, which could originally accommodate 6 cars but now can accommodate 16 cars. On the left, the three-story multi-story parking garage, which could originally accommodate 7 cars, can now accommodate 19 cars.
"Our Gaoke Passenger Transport Station parking lot is open to the public. Due to the limited parking space, the city transportation bureau helped us to obtain this multi-story parking lot project. It has been in use for half a month, and everyone's feedback has been quite good. As long as you input the parking space number, you can get your car in a minute," Tan Jianchun said.
After entering the parking space number at the scene, the computer started operating automatically, and in less than a minute, a small car on the left side of the third floor was transported to a first-floor parking space. "This is a lift-and-shift parking equipment. There are safety sensors all around, so whether it's a person or an animal, once it approaches, the equipment in operation will automatically stop and sound an alarm. This parking lot not only saves space but also prevents theft," Tan Jianchun said.
However, only using it within the Gaoke Passenger Transport Station, can it effectively alleviate the parking difficulties in Lijiang? Tan Jianchun revealed that more than 10 neighborhoods and units have visited, and it is believed that it may be gradually promoted in Lijiang in the future.
Well-known media personality "I Can Do It" believes that parking difficulties in Lijiang have been a long-standing issue, especially finding a parking space on the streets, sometimes requiring multiple rounds. However, this multi-story parking lot, if it can be promoted in Lijiang, will effectively alleviate the parking difficulties in Lijiang.
