The Dashantou hiking trail turns into a concrete road, and a new concrete "ladder" is about to appear!

The Civil Engineering and Development Department is building a large climbing trail. The reporter saw on the scene that some sections of the road have been paved with cement roads or building levels, and a dredger is parked near the top.

For the project, the contractor shoveled a sloping road with a width of 2 meters to 5 meters on the slope along the trail.

Trail runner Zeng Xiaoqiang was dissatisfied with the construction method of hiking trails. He believed that the government should try to use natural materials instead of cementing the entire trail. In addition, he found that a large number of trees had been removed on both sides of the cement trail, and the width of the site was equivalent to 3 times the cement diameter.

The "Concreteization Concern Group on Country Trails" initiated a joint signing yesterday to oppose the project.

This new trail belongs to the "Anderson Road Quarry Development Plan". It starts at the third section of Wilson Trail near a pavilion near Da Niu Lake. It first rises to the southwest to about 220 meters, then the mountain The trail turns to the west and continues upwards until the top of the 400-meter-high Dashantuo Mountain, after which the trail will descend northward to connect to the open space in the future development area.

According to the development plan, the authorities will build a viewing platform on the top of Dashangtuo Mountain.

The reporter visited the site in mid-May and found that from Weijing intersection to the top of Dashangtuo Mountain, the contractor had developed a slope of 2 to 3 meters along the proposed trail, which was about three times the width of the cement trail, and some locations were even worse. It is up to 5 meters wide.

Along the road, there are many building materials including steel bars and a dredger.

Trail runner Zeng Xiaoqiang was dissatisfied with the removal of a large number of trees for the project, and drove a wide slope on the hillside. He sighed: "It's rough, outrageous, and exaggerated! The shovelers are all up to the top of the mountain. It's outrageous. So wide!"

Based on this section of the uphill road, about half of the road has been paved with concrete, and there are both flat concrete roads and steep concrete buildings.

There is a large section of very steep ramps that have not yet been built, but I believe that a long building level will be built.

When I reached the top position, I saw that the workers had already built a section of building-level wooden molds and laid steel bars. I believe that the next step is to pour cement.

Ceng Xiaoqiang, the initiator of the "Public Trail Concretization Concern Group", said that the hiking trail from the big climbing was originally a natural dirt road; on the day of inspection, reporters occasionally saw hiking trails tied to the trees next to the cement trails. Ribbon.

Zeng Xiaoqiang does not oppose the government's improvement of hiking trails so that more people can appreciate the mountain scenery, but he is dissatisfied with the large-scale use of cement by the Civil Engineering and Development Department to build roads because most mountain hikers do not like to use cement roads.

He described this large climbing trail as "concrete on both Liping Road and Dingxian Road."

Zeng Xiaoqiang said that after years of fighting, the AFCD has listened to the views of mountain friends and tried to use wood and stone to build road soil. As for the district civil affairs offices that are mainly responsible for the construction of mountain trails in non-country parks, they have also begun to care about the voices of mountain friends. Reduce the construction of artificial hiking trails.

Zeng Xiaoqiang said: "The Home Affairs Department will consult with us, and we will go to the site for field inspections." In April, the Home Affairs Department invited the Country Trail Fogging Concern Group to Wugui Mountain to discuss the details of the hiking trail project with prescribers.

The Concretization Concern Group on Country Trails made an online appeal on Wednesday, hoping that Shanyou and nearby residents would sign a joint letter to oppose the construction of Dashang Tuoshan Trail.

They oppose the destruction and excessive widening of the original natural mountain trails. They are dissatisfied with the construction of hiking trails with concrete and steel bars. They believe that this project unnecessarily destroys trees and natural landscapes. They also oppose the construction of excessive artificial facilities on the mountains.

The environmental protection group "Green Earth" also posted on social networking sites, dissatisfied with the lack of communication between government departments. "This project is under the responsibility of the Civil Engineering and Development Department. In fact, the AFCD has been building mountain trails by hand in country parks for many years. The path must be harmoniously integrated with the natural environment. Don’t put the cart before the horse and ruin the beauty of the countryside. Why don’t good practices be passed on between departments in the same government?"

The Planning Department published the "Phase 2 Community Involvement Report" for the "Future Land Use Planning Study of Anderson Road Quarry – Feasibility Study" in February 2013. Participants thought that on the rock wall of the big support, Excessive use of concrete, foreign stones and man-made structures should be avoided. In its reply to the report, the Planning Department stated that it would consider imposing restrictions to avoid/reduce the use of concrete, foreign stones and man-made structures on rock walls.

At the top of Jinda’s hilltop, the workers have already built the building-level wooden molds.
