Rail Transit Line 6 of Changchun Open to Traffic
On the morning of March 28, the initial operation of Rail Transit Line 6, with its survey and design general contracting undertaken by UCD, kicked off in Changchun. To date, the mileage of rail transit lines built in Changchun has reached a total of 140.8 kilometers. Opening of the Rail Transit Line 6 will effectively bring into play the role of the line in guiding the development of urban space and will give an impetus to the regional economic development.
As a main passageway from northwest to southeast of Changchun, Rail Transit Line 6 connects the Western New Town Development Zone, Southern Changchun Economic Development Zone and Jingyue Cluster Area, with the total length coming to 29.6 kilometers and 22 stations set up. Starting from Shuangfeng Station of Line 2, Line 6 goes along Feiyue Road, Fangcao Street, Huayuan Road, Changxi Street, Fuzhi Avenue, Shengtai Avenue, Tianpu Road and Yongshun Road and ends at Changying Century City.
With “Happy City of Changchun, Glamorous City of Charms” as its design theme of decoration, the line displays extremely vigorous modern city life featuring rich, beautiful and glittering colors. The postmodern design language is used to forge an easy and lively rail transit space to realize the integration of space and art. For instances, the Feiyue Guangchang station takes the Hongqi automobile culture as its theme to blend in the time tunnel concept, speed and motion and reflect the rapid development of Hongqi automobiles and Changchun to form one-of-a-kind design symbol of auto culture; the Yinghuajie station takes the Yinghua Street (cherry blossom street) as the inspiration of design and fully uses the prefabricated station space effect to depict the blossoms in doodle, manifesting the theme of cherry blossom, growing, goodness and hope.
Smart ticket processors have been set up at all stations of Line 6 to facilitate passenger self-service ticketing; AI technology has been adopted to equip all ticket-selling machines with voice recognition modules to enable passengers to talk to the machines; “biological recognition” model features face recognition system has been set up to improve travel experience; signal intelligent operation and maintenance system has been set up to realize the online, real-time, accurate and frequent device state perception and integrated online monitoring. With “intellectualization”as the theme, Line 6 enriches passengers’ new experience and scenes of science and technology and provides passengers with more convenient travelling conditions.
Currently, six rail transit lines are being built in Changchun, general design of which have all been undertaken by UCD. UCD will continue to give play to its advantages in the industry to make contribution to the rail transit development in Changchun.
