584 self-illuminating road spike lights are installed so that night roads in the mountainous areas of Tong'an District, Xiamen will no longer be walked in the dark.
Mountainous roads are built along mountains, with steep slopes and sharp turns, and limited driving visibility, lurking potential safety hazards. Recently, the Xiamen Municipal Transportation Bureau announced.
The Tong'an Highway Department of the Road Center organized and completed the installation project of solar self-luminous road stud lights on the long downhill section from the Anxi junction of the Longmen Tunnel of Provincial Highway 217 in Tong'an District to Tong'an Lotus Ao Xi. By installing self-illuminating road stud lights on the edge of the road in sections with low visibility at night, the lane boundaries are clearly marked to help drivers understand the direction of the road. 584 spontaneous road spikes form a clear "visual guidance zone" to provide the public with a "visible sense of security" and effectively improve night driving safety. Provincial Highway 217 is an important part of the "Eight Vertical, Eleven Horizontal and Fifteen Links" plan of the trunk line network of Fujian Province. It is also the link between Tong'an District of Xiamen City and Anxi.
The main corridor carries a large amount of commuting and freight traffic between the two places on a daily basis. This project focuses on the section of Tong'an Provincial Highway 217 with poor visibility at night. In response to the problem discovered during the inspection that the long downhill section from the Longmen Tunnel's Anxi junction to Tong'an Lianhua'aoxi lacks effective night vision guidance facilities, the highway department made comprehensive research and judgment and decided to install a solar self-luminous cast aluminum road stud lamp every 10 meters on the road edges on both sides of the section. The solar self-luminous road stud lights put into use this time use high-brightness LED light sources and rely on a light energy self-supply system to absorb solar energy during the day and automatically sense and emit light in low-light environments such as night, rain and fog, with zero energy consumption.
, no wiring, automatic light control, pressure resistance and wear resistance and other advantages. This time, a total of 584 solar self-luminous road stud lights were installed on the approximately 4.85-kilometer-long section of Provincial Highway 217 with poor visibility to provide stable and continuous visual guidance for passing vehicles. The road stud lights use the method of "absorbing solar energy - storing light - self-illumination" to allow drivers to clearly determine the driving direction. At the same time, the raised road stud lights will produce a slight vibration when the vehicle tires run over, thus reminding the driver to correct the direction in time and drive properly. In addition, in the lower section of Tongnan Road on Provincial Highway 213, due to insufficient nighttime visibility of the dividing guardrails in this section, there are certain safety risks. The Tongan Highway Department installed aluminum alloy reflectors and high-brightness reflective films on the middle dividing guardrails of the road, using the reflective principle to reflect vehicle lights, clearly outline the road outline and guardrail positions, and improve nighttime visibility and guidance. A total of 650 guardrail reflectors have been installed this time, which will further enhance the nighttime driving warning effect and make people's travel safer.
