On Dec. 26th of 2013, 110 Golden Dragon buses recently purchased by Cixi Public Transportation Company were officially into operation on 9 routes. And all buses running in the city and rural areas would be all operated by Cixi Public Transportation, which was a huge progress in promoting integration reform of public transport and acted as a reform sample for urban-rural transportation integration in country-level cities of China.
Cixi Public Transportation Company is consisted of Cixi Automotive Transportation Company, Cixi Datong Transportation Company and Cixi Public Transportation and established in May of 2010 according to integrated guidance of Cixi Municipal Government for urban-rural public transportation integration.
In accordance with Gong Jianbo, 110 Golden Dragon buses into the operation of different 9 routes aroused approval of citizens, especially for the larger internal space of larger and longer buses on Route 2 and 16. 12m and 7m buses replace the original 10m and 6m buses allowing much more space compared with crowded carriage in the past. Speaking of other advantages of Golden Dragon buses, Gong Jianbo, a former maintenance staff, praised a lot about cathode electrophoresis technology. “Due to coastal geography of Cixi city, vehicles suffer severe corrosion, by which bus body begins to rust after three years of using. However, cathode electrophoresis technology of Golden Dragon Bus would be free of corrosion for ten years, which is definitely fortune for us. Apart from the labor and time put into body maintenance every several years, regular operation would also be influenced.”
Praise about Golden Dragon Bus is beyond all mentioned above. Cixi Public Transportation appreciates pragmatic attitude and sincere professional ethic of Golden Dragon. Taking service as an example, Golden Dragon treats all customers right through the whole process and does better and more than what it promises. Gong Jianbo told our reporter, “In the past few years, we purchased fewer buses of which Golden Dragon took up a few percentages. There were only 13 buses for travel business. However, service staff of Golden Dragon almost provides service every month and even helps with buses of other brands.”
For now, reform and recombination of Cixi Public Transportation has already come to an end, renewal buses almost ends and Cixi Sample of urban-rural integration already came out. But benefit optimization of passenger transportation resource and new urban-rural integration sharing resources are still in the process which leaves space for pioneering Golden Dragon.
