The slogan of the country to develop rural roads

"If you want to be rich, build roads first", this slogan appears on the walls of countless villages, reflecting the eager expectation of farmers for road construction in the past.

For road construction, the author also has deep feelings. When I was a child, there was no hardened road in the village. On rainy days, due to the muddy roads, the village is basically in an "isolated" state. If you want to get out of the village, you can only walk or drive a tractor, and cars from the city can't pass.

Fortunately, asphalt roads were built in the village and cement roads were built a few years later, which was of great help to the development of the village and the daily life of the villagers.

In recent years, with the increasing number of rural cars and agricultural vehicles, the previously built 3.5-meter-wide cement road is no longer enough, and farmers hope to upgrade the rural roads.

The good news is that farmers don't have to wait long.

A few days ago, Jae-Il Lee, Minister of Transport, answered a reporter's question on the construction of "Four Good Rural Roads" at the third meeting.

After reviewing the great achievements made in rural road construction in the past, Minister Li said that he would continue to promote the high-quality development of the "four good rural roads" in the future.

In the construction of "four good rural roads", we will continue to advance from the following five aspects.

1, implement a new round of rural highway construction and transformation.

Rural highway "every village is connected" has long been realized, but this is far from the end of rural highway construction, and the leap from "having to being excellent" will be realized in the future.

In the future, the construction and reconstruction of rural roads will have the following characteristics: upgrading the rural trunk road network, gradually popularizing two-way lanes, and solving the "difficulty of meeting cars" caused by narrow roads; The basic road network has been continuously extended and expanded, and the "household connection" has been gradually realized, and the "dead end road" in the village road has been opened, making it more convenient for farmers to travel.

2. Rural highway construction will attract migrant workers to participate.

Rural highway upgrading is a big project, which requires a lot of labor.

In order to help farmers increase their income, in the future rural road construction, a large number of migrant workers from nearby villages will be recruited to help them achieve employment nearby.

At the same time, efforts should be made to substitute work for relief, and the development of rural highway-related posts should be intensified.

3. Strengthen rural highway management and maintenance.

Good management and maintenance can greatly increase the service life of roads and avoid premature deterioration of road conditions.

In the past, rural roads were "repaired, but nobody took care of them". The road that farmers have been waiting for for for several years or more often begins to become bumpy after two or three years. If they are maintained at this time, their service life will be greatly increased.

But if you don't ask, the road conditions will deteriorate sharply and you will have to rebuild the road as soon as possible.

4. Improve the service quality of rural roads.

Rural roads serve farmers' lives and rural development. After the road is repaired in the future, it is necessary to improve the service level of rural roads and promote the integrated development of rural passenger transport, rural freight transport and rural postal express delivery.

5. Promote the integrated development of rural roads.

In the future, road construction in rural areas is not only road construction, but also the integration of the development of rural roads with the construction of supporting facilities, industrial parks, tourist attractions and rural tourism along the road, so as to realize "road-based economy" such as "prospering with the road" and "getting rich with the road".

postscript

The author who grew up in the countryside can best understand the rural people's "obsession" with highway construction.

Although "every village is connected" has been realized, the roads in many villages still cannot meet the needs of rural development.

Take the author's hometown as an example. A large farm has been built in a nearby village, and there are often big trucks coming in and out, but the road at the door has long been ruined, which has affected the transportation efficiency.

Other villagers rented other people's cultivated land and planted vegetables and watermelons on a large scale. When they were mature, they found that the cement road in the field had actually set up a limited viaduct where they had to pass, which made it impossible for large trucks to drive to the field, so they had to use electric tricycles to transport them back and forth, constantly loading and unloading them, resulting in a lot of losses of vegetables and watermelons.

Good roads are the premise of rural development. I hope that the rural roads will be more perfect in the future and help the rural areas take off.
