The dismantlement is to accommodate the construction of Zhengzhou subway line 5.

The pedestrian overcrossing has been playing a key role in easing the pedestrian traffic caused by surrounding schools, hospitals and supermarkets.

Many local citizens complained that a number of costly pedestrian overcrossings in Zhengzhou were tore down within a short time, calling this a waste of governmental infrastructure funding.
