Why didn't Hunan High-speed Railway set Luoyang as the main station?

According to the long-term planning of the railway, the main line of Hunan high-speed railway passes through Jiaozuo, Zhengzhou, Pingdingshan and Nanyang in Henan, and naturally will not set up a station in Luoyang without passing through Luoyang. The direction of Hunan high-speed rail is as follows:

There are 1000 reasons for Hunan high-speed rail to go to Luoyang, but there is no one. With the vigorous promotion of Luoyang people, Luoyang built a side road, but the role of the side road can only be hehe. Let's try to analyze the reasons why the road doesn't take Luoyang.

The superior may be based on strategic considerations, and the trunk railway will give priority to the provincial capital cities. Hunan high-speed railway, as an important part of the country's eight verticals and eight horizontals, belongs to the national trunk line, giving priority to big cities near the line. But Luoyang is also a good city, which is unfair to Luoyang.

It may be the strategy of making Zhengzhou bigger and stronger in the province. Zhengzhou is the core city of Henan, the facade of Henan, and also positioned as a national central city. Therefore, the province will try its best to tilt all policies and projects to Zhengzhou.

But I think this plan is very unreasonable. Zhengzhou already has a rice-shaped high-speed rail network, and the railway traffic is very developed. Zhengzhou section of Hunan high-speed railway almost coincides with Beijing-Kowloon line, which is a complete waste.

Conversely, if you take Luoyang, it is almost a straight line, which is completely reasonable and worthy of the name. Taking Zhengzhou is a detour, wasting financial and material resources. Luoyang really needs such a high-speed rail. Luoyang, as the sub-central city of the Central Plains Economic Zone, should be given due attention, not just a name.

More than a decade ago, Luoyang's economy was almost the same as Zhengzhou's, but the gap between Luoyang and Zhengzhou is getting bigger and bigger because of inconvenient transportation and being siphoned by Zhengzhou because of its proximity. The development of Zhengzhou certainly brings opportunities for the development of surrounding cities, but Zhengzhou's monopoly on resources is also obvious. Henan needs not only a strong Zhengzhou, but also a strong Luoyang.

As a tourist city, the traffic in Luoyang is really important to him. Luoyang is rich in tourism resources. If we can fully develop Luoyang's tourism resources, it will make Luoyang's economy by going up one flight of stairs and promote the development of western Henan. Luoyang is famous all over the world. If the traffic is developed, its ability to attract investment and attract talents is no less than that of Zhengzhou.

Zhengzhou is a city that has risen because of the railway. It is already an international transportation hub, as well as a hub for railways, highways and aviation. Hunan high-speed rail is icing on the cake for Zhengzhou, but it is a timely help for Luoyang.

At present, Luoyang is preparing to plan the auxiliary road of Hunan high-speed railway, but the cost is basically self-care, and the later transportation capacity, economic benefits and additional benefits are definitely not as good as the main line.

Luoyang should be self-reliant. Although the main line of Hunan high-speed railway did not take Luoyang, the next step is to make the auxiliary line play a greater role.

The direction and layout of the route, Hunan high-speed railway is an important longitudinal route. With Zhengzhou Station, the logistics in the north can be transported to the south faster, saving construction costs.

The high-speed rail is for the convenience of more people. In principle, the central big city is selected as the route, and other cities are connected by intercity transportation. In the future, the population will be more and more concentrated in central cities, and the competitiveness of small and medium-sized cities without characteristics will become weaker and weaker, which is the trend. After all, Luoyang itself is not strong.

The direction of Hunan high-speed railway is the overall consideration of national strategy and economic development, and the planning will not be adjusted at will because Luoyang is a city. In order to make up for the inconvenience of Luoyang high-speed rail line, the state has included the intercity railways from Zhengzhou to Jiaozuo Xinxiang, Jiyuan and Luoyang in the medium and long-term planning.

Zhengzhou Niu b

The Hunan-Hubei high-speed railway starts from Zhengzhou, connecting Baotou, Hohhot, Datong, Taiyuan, Jinzhong, Changzhi, Jincheng and even Yinchuan and Yan 'an in the future to the Central Plains, and provides convenient access to the Yangtze River Delta, Greater Bay Area and the southeast coast. If you take Luoyang, it is obviously impossible to achieve the above objectives. At present, there is a high-speed railway in Zhengzhou, the main line of Hunan high-speed railway, and several cities along Taihang Mountain in Shanxi have visited economically developed areas many times. The surging crowds and high attendance rate indicate that Shanxi people have this demand. I believe that Hunan high-speed rail has injected vitality into Shanxi's economy. If you call the South High-speed Railway to Luoyang, where does the sword point? Will Shanxi people prefer to go to the underdeveloped areas in Southwest China or the most developed areas in China? The answer is obvious, which shows that Hunan high-speed train to Zhengzhou is not only the wish of Zhengzhou, but also the requirement of Shanxi.

There is no one in Luoyang.

Because Zhengzhou Luoyang is on an east-west line, why should we bypass Luoyang?
