No longer advocate Standing left right dispute of Nanjing subway Elevator Association

In the view of many people, take the escalator "Standing left-right" is a kind of civility and has already formed a habit. But recently in Nanjing Metro for safety reasons no longer advocates "Standing left-right" message, so this became a controversial topic of civilized behavior. Security and order which is more important? Both can coexist? Further research is still needed.

News: Nanjing is no longer advocated "Standing left-right"

According to Xinhua News Agency, Nanjing Metro recently unveiled an official Micro-Blog said, "escalator to the right about 95% wear, no longer advocates ' state right left ', firm hold even more important! "

As early as 2015 initiative of the Nanjing Metro official blog, "no longer advocates ' state right left ', advocated firm hold, do not walk quickly on the escalator, so as not to fall hazards. "Nanjing all MTR stations are no longer published" Standing left-right "voice reminder.

Nanjing Metro in 2010 and from 2011, promoted the escalator "Standing left-right", and as to promote civility, but Department of Nanjing Metro and later think, this civility brought upon the implementation of security risks make people worried. Officers found, often running and fell on the passengers in the lift. Taking into account the safety of passengers, followed by a cooling of Nanjing subway. This year is clearly no longer promotes this behavior.

The same situation also appeared in Guangdong, Shanghai and other places. Guangzhou metro in about 10 years ago, advocating "Standing left-right", Shanghai Metro is 3 years ago no longer advocates "Standing left-right lines."

Not only at the national level, some developed countries have gradually abandoned the "civilized habits". China Elevator Association General Secretary Zhang Lexiang told the Beijing morning news reporter, Korea had strongly advocated the escalator "Standing left-right", but later investigation showed, because on the escalator and elevator accidents account for a large proportion of lead, they were canceled. In addition, Canada and the United States, and Japan have also canceled "Standing left-right", Canada Toronto 2006 taken down 294 "Standing left-right" slogan; United States Metro escalators will be broadcast to remind the "Please hold the handrail, middle stand"; Japan will be emphasized in the broadcast "don't walk, don't run".

Visited the site: some subway escalator located "right State" tips Government knowledge Council 7 leaders instructions

Observant people aren't difficult to find, at present, the subway station's escalator all painted a yellow line in the middle to separate the left and right sides. In the part near the subway station's escalator also find tips "stand on the right" or "left-right State" logo. Metro volunteers also confirmed to reporters, when they are at peak hours passengers will still remind passengers to stand on the right, to ensure good order.

When people take the escalator, and often consciously divided into "two factions" stands firmly on the right, one from the flows on the left side.

In the morning rush hour subway Jianguomen station escalator Department, Beijing morning post reporters saw escalator lined up long long line on the right side, make way for the one channel on the left, some passengers hurried along the elevator power walk. Compared to the side of the stairs and escalators, you are a lot less people.

"I think standing on the right of this rule is silly, time to take the stairs, anxious can throw off my feet on the stairs run, why not running up the stairs. "Public King ladies for" right State left line "of rules is disdain, heard has Nanjing Metro for security and elevator wear consider and canceled" right State left line "of message Hou, King ladies clap your hands praised," special support, I has been on think elevator design out was is let you station with not moving of, but left line actually is encourages in elevator Shang walking has, is contradictions. "Ms Wang said, since the station there are still pitfalls of uneven wear on the right, it should repeal this order.

King's voice, speaking on behalf of the public view. Reporters said most of the people, they do riding "Standing left-right", "has a habit, if not the right, people will think you're not qualified, will look at you strangely, feel your way. But if the escalator will wear, safety is more important. "

But some people think that "Standing left-right" rule is no problem, "lack of order on security. "People believed that the subway crowd is too large, if there is no order, then there is no security, where if not stay away on the left, some of the passengers not want time to go, it may cause a conflict, pushing occurs. Heard about standing on the right side after the potential security risks of, he said, will study what kind of way, safety and order can coexist.

Mall escalators not advocated the "right State"

People crowded compared to the subway, another commonly used public Mall escalator was open a lot. Beijing Morning Post reporter recently visited several malls found that Mall's escalators did not separate left and right side of the yellow line, posted by ladder note or tip "Standing left-right", just hold the handrail.

"We will not prompt customer right left, but everybody riding habit, most people will choose to stand on the right. "Hong-Kun Plaza, Wanda Plaza, new world department store, Cade Mall and many other shopping centers officials said. These shopping malls are said to maintenance escalator safety, shopping malls will be round two double lifts on a regular basis, some stores a week rotation, rotation some stores two weeks or a month, "up" escalator "down," "down" escalator "upside", also in order to reduce wear and tear on the elevator.

Experts say: "Standing left-right" unscientific escalators cannot be used when the stairs

Special equipment inspection center, Beijing Office Director Zhang Dihua told the Beijing morning news reporter, "Standing left-right" from two of in terms of rationality.

From the design point of view on the one hand, escalators are different from ordinary stairs, stair step height around 16 to 17 cm, and escalator step height is generally about 24 cm, far higher than the normal walking stair step height, so escalators are not suitable for walking, if you walk or run on elevators, are prone to personal safety. Furthermore, from the standpoint of protecting the run, stands on the right side for a long time would cause more wear on the right side of the escalator.

"From a security point of view, it is necessary to change the past Standing left-right advocates. "Zhang Dihua said.

On this issue, official of Beijing Subway escalator suppliers to Beijing Morning Post reporter that, "the right State left" did cause some damage to the elevator.

Zhang Lexiang, Deputy Secretary General of the China Elevator Association, spoke to the Beijing Morning Post said, "the right State left" the biggest problem is security. Zhang Lexiang said. In his view, take the escalator to the public's biggest mistake "Standing left-right", because the escalator steps incompatible with human features on design, on the escalator is not safe. Zhang Lexiang believes that "Standing left-right" is a kind of "morality kidnapping" on the escalator is not civilized behavior.

Metro: "Standing left-right" has become a habit to force that change is not reality

It is understood that the Beijing Subway escalator "Standing left-right", originated in 2002.

Beijing acknowledged that "Standing left-right lines" does to the escalator caused a certain degree of wear, but said routine maintenance can ensure passenger riding safety, and had never happened since "Standing left-right lines" caused by the accident.

Beijing Subway, starting from the introduction of subway passengers rode the escalator "Standing left-right" has been advocated, rather than hard and fast rules. At present, passengers have formed a "vertical left-right lines" habits. Traffic grooming, such as security considerations, if suddenly forced the passengers to "Standing left-right" habits, is not very realistic, but easy to destroy good order by ladder.
