Traffic jams in Beijing are obvious to all, the measures taken by our country of building subways, permitting travels by limiting tail numbers and the like already get obvious achievements, but the phenomenon of congestion at present is still serious. The invention discloses two immediate causes resulting in congestion: firstly, people who go to the capital city with personal cars are too many; secondly, people who go to the capital city without driving personal cars spend too much time in buses. Therefore, two solutions are provided for the causes: firstly, the people who go to the capital city with personal cars are made to give up carrying the personal cars; secondly, the people who go to the capital city without driving personal cars spend less time in Beijing. The specific measures includes that firstly; eight bend-free rails leading to the whole country are constructed, the speed per hour is designed to be 500 kilometers, people in the radius of 250 kilometers from the capital city can arrive at Beijing in 30 minutes, and people can arrive at or leave the capital city even at positions more than 250 kilometers away from Beijing; secondly, eight short-distance light rails leading to the periphery from the capital city are constructed, the speed per hour is 500 kilometers, and people in the radius of 200 kilometers from the capital city can arrive at or leave the Beijing in 20 minutes. Therefore, people will not choose to arrive at Beijing by driving the personal cars except special needs, traffic jams are avoided, and thoughts are updated for rail traffic designs.
