Xinmin Evening News (Reporter Sun Yun) Yangpu Wujiaochang Street, which has created community autonomy "Internet celebrity" landmarks such as Daxue Road Pedestrian Street, Good Neighbor Gate, and Chuangzhi Farm, has a new model room for the renovation of the Good Neighbor Community - Guoding Branch Road. Due to the particularity of the geographical form, this short road of a few hundred meters has had many criticized problems, but now, the appearance here has been completely renewed, and there are many public service facilities such as "everyone's lecture hall", "everyone's living room" and "everyone's canteen", which has improved the quality of life in the surrounding residential areas. Referring to the self-management model of Daxue Road Pedestrian Street, the national branch road has also set up a self-management committee, in the process of transformation, what experience has it accumulated, and what role will it play in the future?In the "Everyone's Meeting Hall" activity held yesterday afternoon, residents' representatives, committee representatives, Yangpu District people's congress deputies and representatives of relevant departments gathered together to absorb people's wisdom and gather people's strength.

With the theme of "People's City Democracy Story", the grassroots democratic practice activity of "Everyone's Chamber" came to the "Everyone's Lecture Hall" on the national branch road yesterday to discuss the governance efficiency of the national branch road. The 500-meter-long national branch road runs through the three residential areas, and also connects the two universities of Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, Fudan University and the Daxue Road block, etc., and there are also supporting facilities such as vegetable markets, service centers for the elderly, and community medical points along the line, which is an important link connecting more than 10,000 surrounding residents and influencing the surrounding white-collar workers and students. However, although this road is connected to the outside world, it is more like an internal road, because it is not within the scope of responsibility of the traffic police and road administration, and the properties in different residential areas are unwilling to bear the management responsibility outside the wall, so not only do they have random parking of social vehicles that affect the traffic order, but the environment in front of the shops on both sides of the road is also relatively poor, and the problems of stealing garbage and mixing with machines are repeatedly prohibited.
Since 2021, Wujiaochang Street has listed the National Branch Road Good Neighbor Neighborhood Renovation Project as a key project, and related problems have been gradually alleviated in innovative ways and improved mechanisms. A national branch self-management committee composed of multiple subjects such as **, enterprises, grassroots organizations and regional units came into being, and built an organizational structure, formulated rules of procedure, participated in the follow-up governance of the block, and ensured the daily and orderly operation of the block.
The "home station" of the people's congress deputies built on the "main front" of neighborhood governance also gives full play to its role as a platform carrier for listening to the voices of the people, absorbing the opinions of the people, and gathering the wisdom of the people, so that the "supply" of the people's livelihood and the "needs" of the people's hearts are more accurately matched, and the concentric circles of urban governance are condensed. Relying on the "one station and three points" formed by the liaison station of the people's congress deputies in the good-neighborly block of the national branch road and the contact points of the people's congress deputies in the three surrounding residential areas, the people's congress deputies actively participate in the governance of the block and listen to the opinions of the masses through various forms such as voter reception days, centralized contact with the community, inspection and research, and block stalls. 19 high-quality opinions and suggestions such as indiscriminate parking of motor vehicles were submitted to relevant departments for handling, which boosted the implementation of projects such as everyone's lecture hall, everyone's living room, and baby house, and truly transformed the people's "golden ideas" into "golden keys" for urban governance and "golden fruits" for convenience and benefit.
With the emergence of new functions and new spaces, new problems are gradually emerging, and can the autonomous committee set up to solve the problem solve the problem?For example, can a volunteer service team without administrative law enforcement powers effectively persuade illegally parked vehicles to leave when directing road traffic?Can the mechanism for the participation of autonomous committees in co-governance really work?What are the blocking points and difficulties in the current governance model?In the heated discussion, the wisdom of the masses and the power of pluralistic governance continued to burst out.
