Wang, a netizen, said he works in the Wuhan Economic Development Zone (Hannan District) and often takes the bus. Recently, Mr. Wang found that the two bus stops he often waited for were renamed. The original bus stops of Ningkang road and songhaiyuan were renamed Ningkang Road, ningkangyuan station and songhaiyuan station of Guanhu road.

Mr. Wang has some opinions on this, he said: the original station name is simple and easy to remember, and the renamed station name is too wordy, and even some station names are more than ten words long. I hope the relevant departments can simplify the naming of bus stations and make the names as short as possible.

Wuhan bus station names are mostly 6 to 8 words, short station names are two words, but there are many long station names with many words, and some enthusiastic netizens have also revealed some super long station names collected.

The Department replied that the name of Wuhan bus station was set according to the national standard

Is there a standard for bus station naming? In response to the questions of netizens, Wuhan Economic Development Zone (Hannan District) replied on the message board of Wuhan city that the principle of bus station name setting is in accordance with GB / t22484-2016 "Specification for urban bus and tram passenger service" implemented on May 1, 2017. Part a of this national standard specifies that the station naming and method should follow the principles of "legality, accuracy, convenience and stability" Qualitative, continuity and uniqueness.

According to the reply, the first is that the name of the bus station should be 'road name plus road name' (for example, zhuanyang avenue of Dongfeng Avenue), 'road name plus place name' (for example, Zhongjia village of Hanyang Avenue), 'public welfare unit name' (for example, provincial Museum), 'landmark building name' (for example, & times; & times; railway station); the second is that the name of the bus station should have the cultural function of preserving the historical information of the city (for example, 27 Memorial Hall); Thirdly, the names of bus stops should have certain functions to highlight the characteristics of the city (such as Hanyang river beach, Hankou river beach, Wuchang river beach, etc.), so it is inevitable that individual names have more words.

The reporter noticed that many station names in Beijing use abbreviations of place names, such as' Agricultural Exhibition Hall ',' workers' Gymnasium 'and' Ping'an hospital '.

In view of the current situation of Wuhan Bus Station naming, enthusiastic netizens' stepping on the Yellow Sea 'suggest that the long station name can be appropriately simplified without changing the road name and original meaning.

Through appropriate simplification, the name of Wuhan bus station can be controlled within 10 words.
