A total of 31 cruisers and 8020 alarm monitor probes in public areas will be added to improve the public security and relieve traffic pressure in Kunming urban areas within three years.
The number of vehicles in Kunming has exceeded 1.5 million so far. Traffic violations increased with the rising traffic jam. It is not easy to find a parking lot in Kunming. Violations of road transportation will be investigated and punished in accordance with traffic laws.
It is under discussing that congestion fees will be charged and the parking fees will be charged in different levels in the central urban areas, aiming to ease the traffic pressure. Public parking facilities will be added in the urban areas.
Now many Kunming residents drive their children to schools, which has occupied much traffic space and increased the traffic flow of private vehicles. According to the twelfth Political Consultative Conference in Kunming, He Yuchun (何渝春), a committee member, said: "If 40 seats have been set up on a bus or coach, such a bus full of 40 students may replace 40 private vehicles on the road."
