The difference between one-way navigation system and navigation warning zone in Yangtze River navigation

One-way navigation system and navigation warning zone are two different concepts, which play different roles in Yangtze River shipping management.

1. One-way navigation system for navigation on the Yangtze River: The one-way navigation system for navigation on the Yangtze River refers to specifying the navigation direction of ships on the main channel of the Yangtze River in order to improve navigation safety and traffic efficiency in the Yangtze River waters, so that ships can pass through the main channel in one direction according to certain rules. The system can reduce the relative speed difference between ships, reduce the risk of crossing each other and improve the efficiency of waterway utilization. According to the one-way navigation system, ships must sail in the specified navigation direction, and at the same time, they need to abide by other relevant navigation rules and safety measures.

2. Navigation warning zone: Navigation warning zone refers to an area where navigation is prohibited or restricted in a specific water area in order to maintain navigation safety. Navigation warning zones are usually set according to special circumstances or needs, for example, construction work is carried out in some waters, dangerous areas or sensitive areas. In the navigation warning zone, there are usually relevant regulations and restrictions, including prohibiting or restricting the passage of ships, setting warning signs and issuing warning information. To ensure the safety of navigation.

To sum up, the one-way navigation system of the Yangtze River is aimed at the direction of ships in the main channel of the Yangtze River, aiming at improving navigation safety and traffic efficiency. Navigation warning zone refers to the area where navigation is prohibited or restricted to deal with special circumstances or ensure the safety of specific waters.
