What is the purpose of New York City s traffic roads, and New York City will have checkpoints on tra

The spread of new outbreaks is so rapid that you can catch them if you are not careful, and many countries have taken precautions against outbreaks, especially those that are severe.

New York City will have checkpoints on major transportation arteries, what is the purpose? The mayor of New York City said that New York City began setting up checkpoints on major transportation routes into the city on the same day to strengthen the implementation of epidemic defenses, such as self-isolation for foreign passengers. New York joined the states of New Jersey and Connecticut in June announcing that travelers from high-risk areas in the U.S. must self-isolate for 14 days upon arrival.

Currently, California, Texas, Florida and 34 other states in the continental United States, as well as Puerto Rico, are classified as high-risk areas by the state of New York.

At the press conference that day, it was said that the checkpoint setting was the sole responsibility of the New York City Sheriff's Office, and its location was adjusted daily. The New York Sheriff said the checkpoint will be located near the main bridges and tunnels in New York City. In addition to strengthening the implementation of quarantine policies, they will also check that passengers are complying with other epidemic prevention regulations.

The work at each checkpoint will be carried out in accordance with a uniform set of procedures to ensure that the rights of all are protected.

It is hoped that by setting up checkpoints, the general public will be more aware of the importance of strict implementation of quarantine and other epidemic prevention regulations. The City is also working with companies in the transportation and tourism industries to increase awareness and enforce regulations. The City can provide accommodation, food, and medicine if quarantined people need it, and those who violate the epidemic prevention regulations face fines of up to $10,000.

According to the outbreak data, there were 15 new cases in New York City and no deaths. There were 636 new confirmed cases in New York State, with a positive rate of testing for the virus. The total number of hospitalizations fell to 564 and four people died.

Currently, more than 418,000 people have been confirmed to be infected in New York State, with more than 73,000 people and 32,700 deaths.

In order to check the body temperature of local people, especially for people from other places on some passing vehicles, it is a good thing, it is better than not checking at all.

The purpose is to test whether the people passing by are infected with the new coronavirus, which can reduce the number of infected people and effectively control the growth of the epidemic.

Transportation in New York City is complex and diverse. Because it is the largest and most congested city in the United States and home to the largest metropolitan area in the world, the city's traffic flow is huge.

New York City and its surrounding areas have large traffic volumes, so the New York Metropolitan Area, centered on New York City, also has units established by each state** alone or in partnership to provide transportation needs in the greater New York area. New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut have a large number of commuters, and there is a very large transportation need for the greater New York area every day, which makes the greater New York area have the most developed mass transportation system in the United States. In contrast to most other metropolises in the U.S. (especially Los Angeles), New Yorkers commute to work by bus, subway and ferry, and the New York subway is one of the largest public transportation systems in the world.

In addition, there is also a magnetic card ticket system that can be used between the New York subway and buses - MetroCard, which is a passenger discount system implemented by New York City** to promote mass rapid transit transportation. This reform has made it easier to transfer between the subway and buses in New York, so it has been very popular with residents and tourists. Shortly after the card was issued in 1997, the number of passengers on the New York mass transit system reached 27 million.

In addition, due to the intricacies of the rivers and harbors in New York City, the number of bridges and tunnels is a major feature. These bridges and tunnels have contributed significantly to the development of New York, especially to the island of Manhattan, which is surrounded by water, as bridges are the gateway between downtown (Manhattan) and the suburbs, as well as tunnels. But during rush hour, bridges and tunnels become traffic bottlenecks.

In addition to the excellent transportation in the metropolitan area, New York City is also highly connected to the rest of the United States, and through the well-developed and complex rail and road network, New York residents can travel to and from other cities across the country more quickly and easily. In addition, due to its location in the northeastern United States, its proximity to Europe, and its proximity to the world's busiest North Atlantic route, New York is also very busy with air and sea traffic to and from all parts of Europe.

There are 13,087 licensed taxis in the New York area, mostly yellow, managed by private companies and licensed by the New York Taxi & Car Commission. Fares start in US dollars and then cost USD per kilometre (3 blocks after 8pm and from 4pm to 8pm during peak holiday hours), with additional charges in case of traffic jams or passing through toll bridges and tunnels.

Odometer-mounted taxis appeared on the streets of New York City around 1907. In 1915, John DHertz founded a yellow taxi company and operated in some cities, including New York, and later painted his taxis yellow so that passengers could recognize them from a distance.

In 1967, New York City ordered all the "medal" yellow cabs. In 1999, there were 241 million passengers in New York taxis. According to a 2000 census conducted in the United States, 82 percent of the 42,000 drivers in the New York area were from abroad.

Of these, 23% came from the Caribbean (Dominica and Haiti) and 20% from South Asia (India, Pakistan and Bangladesh).

In 2005, in response to the increasing trend of oil prices**, energy and the greenhouse effect, New York Mayor Bloomberg signed a law allowing New York taxi operators to introduce hybrid vehicles (cars powered by both gasoline and electricity). Statistics show that when driving in congested urban areas, hybrid vehicles are 80% more fuel economical than traditional gasoline vehicles.
