山西是个多山的省,特殊的地理环境和相对落后的经济条件,使得全省公路事业尤其是农村公路事业发展缓慢,成为制约农村经济发展的一大瓶颈。农村长期落后的局面,农产品长期滞销的无奈,农村资源长期得不到开发利用,“抱着银碗讨饭吃”的痛苦,以及东部地区改革开放的变化,使山西人民更感到路的重要,广大农民群众盼路、修路的热情日益高涨,加快农村公路建设步伐成为全省人民的广泛共识。 Shanxi is a mountainous province. Its special geographical environment and relatively backward economic conditions have made the province’s highway industry, especially the development of rural roads, slow and have become a major bottleneck restricting the development of rural economy. Long-term backwardness in rural areas, the long-term unsalableness of agricultural products, the lack of long-term development and utilization of rural resources, “the holding of silver bowls to eat and eat,” the painstaking changes in the eastern region and the reform and opening up, and making the people of Shanxi feel more important. The masses of peasants hope for the road and their enthusiasm for road construction is on the rise. Speeding up the pace of rural road construction has become a broad consensus among people across the province.
