How advanced is Guangdong's first highway service area named after a person?

On the morning of June 16th, the Wuhan-Shenzhen Expressway's Shixing Link (referred to as the "Wuhan-Shenzhen Link") officially opened, welcoming its first visitors to Jiuling Service Area, Guangdong's first highway service area named after a person. The service area, named after the renowned Tang Dynasty poet and chancellor Zhang Jiuling, features an "open book" shaped sloping roof, a "bright moon" courtyard in a modern Chinese architectural style, and a statue of Zhang Jiuling, with each element showcasing the beauty of cultural heritage.

Jiuling Service Area is located in Shixing County, Shaoguan City, Guangdong Province, the hometown of Zhang Jiuling (673-740), a notable poet and chancellor of the Tang Dynasty. Named after him, the service area integrates local features such as the Chebaling National Nature Reserve and traditional Shixing elements. It incorporates folk culture, rural drama, scenic landscapes, and commercial displays, allowing travelers to experience the charm of traditional culture.

Shixing County boasts rich intangible and tangible cultural heritage, including the art of making "Chancellor Noodles" and the legends of Zhang Jiuling, both provincial intangible cultural heritages. These are closely linked to Zhang Jiuling, aligning perfectly with the cultural theme of the service area. The service area features a cultural and creative zone and cultural walls in its service building. They showcase the entire process of making Chancellor Noodles through creative exhibits, miniature models, and interactive kiosks, promoting local intangible cultural heritage.

Jiuling Service Area is the first in the province to be actively constructed with a single-sided and "tidal flow" design. It employs a "double ground floor" service building, allowing both directions of traffic to share commercial and service facilities. This design offers five significant benefits: reduced land use, shared resources and facilities, cost savings, enhanced service experience, and low-carbon energy efficiency.

With its "double ground floor" service building, Jiuling Service Area allows for the sharing of commercial and service facilities between northbound and southbound traffic. By providing sufficiently wide connecting roads between the north and south areas and implementing smart traffic guidance and physical separation, the service area can direct traffic to the opposite area during peak times, maximizing the use of parking spaces, gas stations, and charging stations. In extreme situations, the service area can accommodate up to 1,033 vehicles, effectively addressing congestion and the difficulty of finding parking spots during major holidays.

廣東首個以人名命名的高速服務區有多先進？

“書卷”形的坡屋頂，新中式建築風格的“明月”中庭，唐代名相張九齡的雕像……一步一景，盡顯文化之美。

6月16日上午，武深高速公路始興聯絡線（以下簡稱“武深聯絡線”）正式開通，廣東首個以人名命名的高速服務區——九齡服務區——也迎來了第一批客人。

據瞭解，九齡服務區處於唐代名相張九齡的故鄉廣東省韶關市始興縣。張九齡（生於673年—卒於740年）是唐代著名詩人，曾官至宰相（相當於政府總理）。以他命名的九齡服務區以道爲詩，融入車八嶺元素、融合始興地方特色，將民俗文化、鄉村戲劇、山水田園、商業展示等元素注入其中，讓過往的旅客領略傳統文化魅力。

始興縣當地非遺和物質文化遺產豐富，其中宰相粉製作技藝和張九齡傳說是省級非物質文化遺產，且均與唐朝名相張九齡相關，深度契合九齡服務區文化主題。因此，項目在九齡服務區的服務樓設置文創專區、文化牆等，通過創意小品、宰相粉製作工藝微縮模型、互動終端機等，展現宰相粉製作全過程，助力地方非遺和物質文化遺產宣傳推廣。

作爲省內首個主動建設的單側設置、“潮汐式”服務區，九齡服務區採用“雙首層”服務樓形式，雙向交通流可共享服務樓的商業配套與服務設施，具有“減少土地佔用、資源設施共享、節約經營成本、提升服務體驗、低碳節能環保”五大效益。

九齡服務區採用“雙首層”服務樓形式，雙向交通流可共享服務樓的商業配套與服務設施。通過在南北場區之間設置足夠寬度的連接道路，採取智能交通指引及物理隔離，可在高峰時段將車流引至另一側場區，實現停車位、加油站、充電樁等設施利用的最大化，極端情況下停車位可達1033個，有效化解重大節假日擁堵和“車位難求”的難題。
