中国宣布计划建超级高速公路，全面支持自动驾驶

The 100-mile expressway is expected to connect three major cities in China, which already has one of the largest highway networks in the world.

The project would cost 17.4 billion yuan (£2 billion), according to Chinese media.

Equipped with solar panels, the cutting-edge traffic link could also charge electric cars on the go and allow drivers to pay tolls without stopping.

The six-lane Hang-Shao-Yong Expressway is set to link Hangzhou, the provincial capital of Zhejiang, with two medium-size cities in the same province, Shaoxing and Ningbo.

The first part of the highway is expected to open to the public in 2021, according to China's Xinhua News Agency.

即将开始建设的连接杭州、绍兴、宁波三地的杭绍甬高速公路是一条超级高速公路。全长100英里，规划双向6车道，投资174亿元，预计2021年通车。

通过太阳能发电等设施为电动汽车充电，而且司机开车经过收费站可以不用停车。

Reng Zhong, the Deputy Minister of Transport in Zhejiang, said in the report that in the long run a smart traffic controlling system would be installed on the highway and in the cars so that the road could support autonomous vehicles.

浙江省交通运输厅副厅长任忠介绍，智能的核心理念是要构建人车路协同系统，使这条路远期能够支撑自动驾驶，近期能够实现自由流收费。

Sun Zhang, a professor at Shanghai Tongji University, told Global Times: 'Automatic driving is comparatively safe compared with the manual drive mode.

上海同济大学教授孙章对环球时报记者说，“跟人工驾驶比起来，自动驾驶相对更安全。”

'Sensors installed within the vehicles and on the road can react faster than humans when emergencies occur and detect malfunctions so as to ensure road safety.'

一旦遇到紧急情况，安装在汽车和公路上的感应器，反应速度比人更快。

I wonder who they will award the contract to. They have neither the self created technology (they steal it) nor the ability outside of basic labor to build it .

不知道工程会交给谁来做

中国既没有自主技术，也没有能力修超级公路啊

你不知道自己错大了

要是放在1970年，也许你说得是对的，不过现在已经是2018年了

I wonder if it will reduce the high number of road deaths in China?

超级公路建好后，不知道中国公路交通致死事故是否会减少

Unless they build Free Flow Liquid Flow interchanges and intersections they will still have jams, gridlock and congestion and vehicle pollution as a consequence!

除非修畅通无阻的立交桥，否则还会出现堵车的。

It's amazing what a strong industrial based economy can afford to do for its' people. In the western world however, We lost ours and are now suffering greatly.

有着强大工业基础的经济，居然能为人们带来如此先进事物。

西方已经输了，输惨了
