On July 24th, 20 13, Zhuhai Municipal Transportation Bureau held a related meeting, and announced the construction of Zhuhai Modern Tram Line 1 in September of 20 13. Line 1 is 8.9 kilometers long with a total investment of 2.6 billion. There are 14 stations on the whole line. In addition, the first phase of the project has 1 vehicle base, covering an area of 7.5 hectares. The total length of roads along the synchronous reconstruction is about 10 km. At the same time, the 1 line project takes the lead in applying foreign non-woven ground power supply technology in China. In addition, this model adopts advanced technologies such as low-floor steel wheel-rail vehicles and contactless ground power supply system. Compared with tram projects in other cities in China, the construction content of the project is complicated, but the project cost is moderate. Zhuhai trams adopt 100% modern trams with low-floor steel wheels and rails, with a length of 32m and a width of 2.65m, a maximum running speed of 70km/h and a capacity of 300 people/car (according to the standing standard of 6 people/frame).
The whole track adopts integral ballast bed, embedded track structure and groove track; Mainly paved with lawn greening, and mainly paved with masonry in some areas. The station adopts an open platform, equipped with service facilities such as ticket vending machines and passenger information systems; The station uses underground pedestrian passages and crosswalks to solve the problems of pedestrians crossing the street and entering and leaving the platform. The power supply for the whole line adopts the patented technology of ground power supply system in Ansaldo, Italy, and there is no overhead catenary except the vehicle base.
Operation control management system, using turnout control system, vehicle automatic positioning system, signal priority system, monitoring system, wireless communication system and other technologies, controls and manages vehicles to run according to the timetable as much as possible to ensure punctuality. The tram signal priority control based on the combination of green wave and active request is realized on the roads along the tram.
The whole line is equipped with a 1 vehicle base, which is the Shangchong depot on the west side of Cuiping Road, covering an area of about 7.5 hectares. There is a control center in Shangchong Depot, and the vehicle base is shared by the tram network in the main city. In order to make full use of the land resources of the vehicle base, the tram will drive the development of the surrounding cities, and the vehicle base will be developed on the roof to build an urban complex integrating commerce, residence, office and transportation.
