Abstract:In order to make the riverside and coastal development chains of Shanghai and even the Yangtze River Delta better served in the traffic, the overall scheme of Puxi section of the riverside channel in Shanghai is studied. Firstly, the project goal is analyzed from the connection of traffic system, utilization of current traffic facilities, planning and preparation of engineering construction, and the other aspects. On this basis, two overall schemes of "hard connection" and "soft connection" are proposed. The functional orientation and connection method of each system are clarified. The systematical schemes are specially discussed in detail. The study and comparison thinking of the overall scheme are discussed from two aspects of the upper planning conditions and traffic functions. Finally, the "hard connection" systematical scheme is determined as the overall scheme.
