銀川成爲全國最堵城市 首都北京排名第四

The cities of Yinchuan, Jinan, and Luoyang experienced the largest number of traffic jams in the first quarter of this year, while the capital Beijing came in at fourth place, according to a report published by digital map service provider Amap.

電子地圖服務提供商高德地圖近日發佈的一份報告顯示，今年一季度，銀川、濟南和洛陽出現的擁堵次數最多，首都北京位居第四。

The Spring Festival travel rush and bad weather conditions contributed to traffic congestion in these cities.

春運和不佳的天氣狀況是造成上述城市交通擁堵的原因。

The report shows that about 18 percent of cities surveyed were severely affected by traffic jams in the first quarter of the year, 64 percent were moderately affected, and 18 percent were found to have smooth traffic flows.

這份報告顯示，今年第一季度，約有18%的城市受到交通擁堵的嚴重影響，64%的城市受到中度影響，另外18%的城市則交通順暢。

Almost 60% of cities in China experienced the same or less traffic congestion compared with the same period last year, which suggests that local government efforts to ease traffic congestion were having a positive effect, according to the report.

報告稱，與去年同期相比，我國近六成城市擁堵情況處於持平或下降趨勢，這說明地方政府爲緩解交通擁堵所做的努力產生了積極的效果。

First-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen dropped in the rankings of the most congested cities.

北京、上海、廣州、深圳等一線城市在最擁堵城市排行榜中的排名有所下降。

But congestion was found to be worsening in medium and large-sized cities such as Luoyang, Shantou and Hefei.

但洛陽、汕頭、合肥等大中型城市的擁堵狀況有所加劇。
