The number of cars in Moscow is growing from year to year and to solve the problem of traffic jams, apparently, it is impossible. Let’s see how this is realized in other countries on the example of the city of Brisben.
The growth of the population of Brisben, the capital of the state of Queensland and the third largest population of the city of Australia, in the future will continue. About 1,500 people from all over Australia and other countries arrive in the city every week. While maintaining such pace, by 2026 the population will increase by 1.4 million. Man, despite the fact that at the moment it is 1.8 million. Human. To cope with the problems that arise at the same time, the government of the state of Queensland and the City Council initiated a large -scale modernization program as part of the new transport program. For Brisben, located on the east coast of Australia, and where cars are the most common type of transport, the adoption of this program means mainly the modernization of the existing roads and the construction of new ones, says a local driving instructor.
The city itself has a plan for the modernization of Transapex roads, it is planned to expand the local road network outside the city line and create new ways to the airport. At the first stage of the plan of modernization of the city’s roads, it is supposed to improve the situation with transport traffic jams in a densely built -in center by building a tunnel, which will pass from north to south under the Brisben River. Upon completion of construction in 2010, this double tunnel 4.8 km long, will become the longest in Australia. The connecting roads and interchanges at the ends of the tunnel bring the total length of the transport route under construction to 6.8 km.
The road under construction will become a necessary additional link between the banks of the Brisben River and will connect the internal city bypass road on the northern shore with the Pacific Highway highway on the South. This highway leaves the city from the south side and leads to resorts and residential areas of the Golden Coast.
Currently, there are clearly not enough crossings across the river, and despite the fact that the Pacific Highway highway has a bridge leading to the city on the Riverside ExpressWay speed road, traffic jams are constantly formed on this bridge. Another famous bridge, a bridge with Jim Story Bridge steel farms and the decoration, which used decorative plaster, was built immediately after the war and too small for modern loads from the traffic flow. The tunnel takes place under the Jim Story Bridge bridge and the highway No. 15 following it, following the same course along the center of the long narrow peninsula Kangaroo Point. Residential areas on the peninsula are limited by a steep turn of the river to the north, which then also goes steeply to the south and forms a narrow isthmus, leaving in the West a densely built -up central business area.
