Nanjing, the first to set up a limited lighting project area to light up the Purple Mountain

Nanjing city recently issued the guidelines for the construction of urban landscape lighting, lighting for the city set the rules, the first delineation of restrictions and prohibit the establishment of lighting engineering area. According to the "guidelines", the main city of Nanjing, the light is bright, the dark is dark.

Ming city wall to illuminate the purple mountain to stick

Nanjing City Management Bureau inspector Li Yiwu familiar with the guidelines formulated before and after, he explained to reporters the "guidelines" content.

In the future, Nanjing will be in the history of the landscape, modern landscape and the new landscape of the three types of objects in the selection of representative lighting objects to create urban night.

In the historical landscape, Nanjing focus on the selection of New River, Qinhuai hundred miles of green corridor, the Ming city wall with the Qinhuai River scenery as the main object of landscape lighting. 35 km Ming city wall lighting, but strictly control the brightness of lighting, with a simple warm tone outline of the historical landscape, creating a quiet atmosphere, passing the vicissitudes of history.

According to the guidelines, Xuanwu Lake and the surrounding area will become the focus of Nanjing to create a night card. Xuanzang temple, Jiming temple, Mount Jiuhua, NanJing Railway Station surrounding mountain, Beijige to be incorporated in the overall design, to create a natural and harmonious integration of history and modern urban city picture.

Prior to the call to be included in the purple mountain landscape lighting, guide to be completely denied this. Such as the prohibition of the construction of purple mountain area and natural ecological protection zone was designated as a strict ban on lighting areas. Insiders believe that, from Xuanwu Lake to Mount Jiuhua and then to purple mountain, in the night sky formed a looming natural skyline. At the same time to create a Xuanwu Lake night business card, it is not appropriate to use the light to destroy the subtle beauty.

Aiming at the problem of light pollution and great social reflect the "guide" provisions of regional residential areas, municipal traffic areas cannot be set within these areas of landscape lighting, commercial facilities of landscape lighting, but must strictly control the brightness and radiation range, non intrusive.

Included in the "modern landscape" lighting objects have Drum Tower Square, Shanxi Road, Xinjiekou square and Hunan Road District, these areas will be the upgrading of lighting. In the west, Xianlin new town area, landscape lighting environment to highlight the construction of ecological livable, green environmental protection.

The Qinhuai River lighting over the big screen everywhere

The preparation of the guidelines, the main designer Xu Dongliang believes that compared with other cities in the country, Nanjing is still relatively restrained lighting, but also to some extent, there is a lack of coordination lighting, lighting and other common faults.

The morning of July 10th, a number of experts in the field of urban lighting Nanjing coastal the Qinhuai River. 7 years ago, from the water to the west gate of the river between the two sides of the laying of a total of 16 thousand guardrail lights, every flood season, these lights are often immersed in water, the current tens of thousands of lights can not be used, experts recommend the removal of the whole line. Some experts told reporters that it should take into account the factors of water level, the design is defective, but both sides of the Qinhuai River is a public leisure area, there is no need to engage in landscape lighting.

In addition to the the Qinhuai River Strait, Zixia lake, Mochouhu park etc. most of the implementation of all the lighting project. Nanjing Lighting Association Secretary General Shen Ru told reporters that some of the trees of the park to the nearest seat light glare. She believes that in the park such a quiet place, a functional lighting and a small amount of landscape lighting embellishment enough.

Lukoujichang connection line, away from the downtown area, a road layout of the landscape lighting, the night under the trees and grass bright visible. It was suggested that this kind of lighting how much affect the ecology, birds do not come to roost, contrary to the concept of ecological livable city.

Experts also suggested that the large size of the display in Nanjing everywhere, too much light. In addition to the Xinjiekou area, the Grand Palace, Hanzhoung gate, the drum tower and other traffic arteries are equipped with a large screen, some screen glare, obviously too bright. They hope that the relevant departments can be adjusted according to the guidelines of the lighting requirements of the display to be adjusted.

Regression simple to meet the needs of the people

"Guidelines" is to enhance the quality of urban landscape lighting. While some people suggested that the residents travel safety lighting should be taken more seriously, such as the Liuhe East Nanjing bridge on the high-speed entrance no street lights, the night was dark, not familiar with the area of the road, people simply can not find entrance.

Liang Renjie, Professor of Nanjing University of Science and Technology, a long-term study of urban lighting holds the same view. In his view, the lighting first to meet the needs of the people, street alley, the old district and corridor lighting should be given enough attention, to meet the actual needs of the people of the functional lighting in the first place.

Around the actual display, landscape lighting is more sought after. Analysis of the industry, a major reason for the bright lighting is a short construction cycle, quick, and difficult to assess the cost of inputs and outputs. With a few months or even less time, lighting can see results. A new lamp promoters told reporters that the cost is difficult to consider lighting. Many lamps and lanterns equipment is not the standard product, but is according to the different building, the place custom. In addition, a lighting art design component, the price is difficult to assess, the engineering effect is each one according to his lights, to draw a conclusion.

Xinjiekou, Hunan Road and other modern landscape lighting area, the future will be upgraded". Shen Ru suggested that the upgrade is to turn into art, which requires the owners and the government to spend more thought. Nanjing Zifeng building landscape lighting has become the
