The Study on Maintenance Mechanism of Rural Highway in China

Abstract:

With the mature development of trunk roads and national highways, China diverts her attention to rural highways' development in the face of issues concerning agriculture, rural areas and farmers. Rural highways make great contribution to the development of rural economy and will resolve issues adequately. So rural highway should receive close attention. But there is no answer from experience in maintenance field, the maintenance mechanism is unscientific, and its management is confused. If we can't change this situation properly, it will largely affect the maintenance quality of rural highway and be an obstacle to the travel of farmers and the circulation of agricultural goods. So we take Wuhan rural highway for example to settle the potential problems. In order to get the experience and revelation, first, I make it clear about the concept of rural highway and analyze the maintenance situations of Wuhan, the capital of Hubei province in China; Second, I’d like to point out the problems in the maintenance mechanism of Wuhan rural highway; Then, I give countmeasures to maintenance mechanism of Wuhan rural highway from the financing channels and maintenance model. The financing channels to get adequate funds and maintenance model fully exerting its economic factions will directly affect the quality of rural highway and even the development of national economy. The abundant fluent funds supply chains and the optimization of maintenance model are the guarantee of safety and efficiency of rural highway, directly affect the trips of farmers and the circulation of agricultural goods, promote the development of integration of urban and rural economies and help construct a harmonious society.
