What is the most commonly used and most inclusive public transport for everyone? Most people's answer must be a bus, which only needs to put in 1 to 2 yuan to get to the destination. But have you ever taken a free "green" bus?
Hebei News Network mentioned that the people's livelihood in various places follows the "voice of the people" and tries every possible way to do practical and good things for the masses. In Kangbao County, Zhangjiakou City, the county's urban and rural areas run low-carbon and green new energy buses, and the masses can ride them for free.
At the west gate of Kangbao Yi'an Community, the largest resettlement community in the province, new energy buses Kangbao No. 1 and No. 3 have arrived at the station one after another, and residents queue up to get on the bus without coins.
The passenger told reporters: "Now this energy-saving and environmentally friendly car is also comfortable to sit in, energy-saving and environmentally friendly, and everyone is particularly welcome!" ”
Kangbao County is located in Zhangjiakou Bashang area, the county area is vast, the farthest Tuchengzi Town is more than 50 kilometers away from the county seat, and it is inconvenient for the grassroots people to travel. Taking into account the actual needs of the masses, Kangbao County invested 40 million yuan to purchase and run 37 new energy buses, opened 11 urban and rural bus lines, 15 towns and villages along the way all connected to the bus, covering 3,365 square kilometers of the county, and the fare is subsidized by the county finance, the masses can ride for free, and can enjoy the travel service of the county within one hour without spending a penny.
Kangbao buses are not only free, but also low-carbon and green. All buses are pure electric new energy buses, and the electricity used is the green electricity generated by wind power and photovoltaic power in Kangbao County, which is energy-saving, environmentally friendly and safe and pollution-free, and can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 370 tons per year, which is an out-and-out "blue sky guard".
Feng Guoqiang, director of the Kangbao County Urban Passenger Transport Management Institute, told reporters: "In the next step, we will add charging stations to all 7 township bus lines to achieve the coverage of bus charging 'township and township', so that the masses can harvest the happiness of 'lifting their feet and leaving the house and getting on the bus for free'." ”
