The bridge deck of the Jingtian North Pedestrian Bridge on the North Ring Road in Futian District is paved with anti-skid materials.
Pedestrian bridges are one of the important transportation infrastructures in the city, which plays an important role in ensuring the safe crossing of the street and improving traffic efficiency. Due to the long construction age of most overpasses in Futian District, in recent years, the Futian Administration of the Shenzhen Municipal Transportation Bureau has found that some pedestrian bridges have problems such as damaged and old bridge deck pavement, slippery bridge deck in rainy days, and too narrow slope width of some stairway paths, which affect the safety of citizens.
In order to eliminate potential road safety hazards in a timely manner and create a safe, comfortable and smooth road traffic environment for the citizens, the Futian Administration of the Municipal Transportation Bureau adheres to the problem-oriented approach and takes the travel needs of the citizens as the starting point to carry out the special work of anti-skid renovation of pedestrian bridges in the jurisdiction. At the beginning of 2023, the bureau will conduct a full investigation of the current situation of pedestrian bridges in the jurisdiction, and at the same time, combined with the opinions of the street office, community and other departments, formulate a batch improvement plan, and promote the implementation according to priority. Up to now, a total of 15 pedestrian bridges, including the Xiangmei North Pedestrian Bridge on the North Ring Avenue, the Jingtian North Pedestrian Bridge, the Pearl Ridge Pedestrian Bridge, and the Chegongmiao Pedestrian Bridge, Shangsha Pedestrian Bridge, and Tairan Pedestrian Bridge on Binhe Avenue, have been completed.
The anti-skid remediation work of the pedestrian bridge focuses on the new process of "colored ceramic particle anti-skid layer" to make the bridge deck pavement more anti-slip and wear-resistant, firm and beautiful. This technology not only solves the problem that traditional pedestrian bridge tiles are easy to break and fall off, but also makes the material color more flexible, and can be designed into a color suitable for different business environments. In addition, the ceramic particles on the surface can increase the surface roughness, which not only enhances the friction of the ground, but also quickly diverts rainwater.
It is worth mentioning that the anti-skid renovation work of the pedestrian bridge not only further improves the anti-skid performance of the bridge deck, but also draws marking lines on both sides of the bridge deck and the stairway, clearly marking the words "steep slope implementation, no riding" and other words, and adding "ramp, get off the car to implement" signs, warm reminders and guide passing pedestrians and non-motorized vehicles to travel in a civilized manner. Not only that, the Futian Administration of the Municipal Transportation Bureau has also added Braille guidance signs and Braille maps on the flyover stairway, so that the visually impaired can obtain complete orientation information near the flyover and help them identify their location and the correct direction of the path.
Futian District has carried out anti-skid renovation work on pedestrian bridges to further improve the travel safety of citizens and improve the road traffic experience. In the next step, the Futian Administration of the Municipal Transportation Bureau will continue to take the special rectification as the starting point, combine the actual situation of the pedestrian bridges in the jurisdiction, accelerate the maintenance and rectification of other pedestrian bridges, and effectively solve the problems closely related to the daily life of citizens such as old pedestrian bridges and slippery ramps, so as to provide convenience for citizens to travel and enhance their sense of gain, happiness and security.
