The curtain of the return trip of the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday of the National Day has been opened. In order to ensure the safe and convenient return of passengers, the capacity of railway trunk lines has been continuously increased, the service of expressways has been continuously upgraded, and the urban traffic connection has been made with precision. The transportation department has used meticulous services to solve the fatigue of passengers.
Optimizing service to ensure railway passenger flow
From October 7, the national railways ushered in the peak of return passenger flow. In the face of the surge in passenger flow, local railway departments accurately put in capacity, implemented measures to facilitate the people and benefit the people, and strived to meet the travel needs of passengers.
"The seats in the waiting room are not only comfortable, but also can be charged for free." Zhang Wen, a passenger waiting for the night train in shanghai hongqiao railway station, told reporters. It is reported that in order to make passengers have a more comfortable and safe waiting environment, on October 7-8, the Shanghai Bureau of China Railway opened the waiting rooms for several stations in its jurisdiction, such as Shanghai Hongqiao, Hangzhou East and Nanjing South, to provide a comfortable waiting environment for passengers taking the night high-speed train.
At the same time, as an important transportation hub, Wuhan Bureau of China Railway has comprehensively optimized the entry and exit flow lines of stations such as Hankou Station and Wuhan Station, increased volunteers in key areas such as entrance, platform and waiting room, provided guidance services, extended the connection time of buses, subways and taxis, and made every effort to ensure the smooth entry and exit of stations under large passenger flow.
Transportation security in remote areas is also solid. Urumqi Bureau of China Railway added a pair of Lanzhou-oriented general-speed trains and Xining-oriented bullet trains at Hami Station, reconnecting the popular line EMUs in Xinjiang. "It’s very convenient to buy tickets online during this holiday, and the extra trains are not crowded at all." Li Jianrong, who returned from Hami to attend school in Urumqi, said. In addition, the volunteers of "Qiaomei 365 party member Service Station" in Hami Station also provide "one-stop" guidance service for the elderly passengers, further enhancing their travel experience.
"At present, the railway passenger flow has entered the peak of return journey. Please pay attention to the weather changes and travel service information in time, reserve enough time to enter the station, carry your belongings in strict accordance with the regulations, and take the bus in an orderly manner according to the number of trains, dates, intervals and seat numbers marked on the ticket, so as to achieve civilized travel and jointly maintain a good travel environment." The relevant person in charge of China State Railway Group Co.,Ltd. suggested.
Technology empowerment upgrades self-driving experience
According to the data of the Ministry of Transport, the proportion of self-driving trips during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year is about 80%, and it is estimated that more than 1.8 billion people will choose to travel by road. Among them, the traffic of new energy vehicles has increased significantly year-on-year, and the expressway service area has become a key node for return travel guarantee. Local transportation departments make the return journey smoother through technology empowerment and service upgrade.
"In the past, it took half an hour to charge, but now there are more piles, the charging speed is faster, and the efficiency of the road is improved a lot!" Mr. Chen, the owner of Changsha West Service Area, said. It is reported that Hunan Expressway has added 144 charging parking spaces in 15.5 pairs of service areas, and 22 liquid-cooled overcharging stations have achieved a charging speed of "1 second and 1 kilometer".
In addition, scientific and technological means also make road network scheduling more accurate. Anhui relies on the "Wanmei Expressway Brain" to access the data of 23 inter-provincial road sections in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Henan and Jiangxi provinces, and monitor the traffic flow in real time through a three-level dispatching mechanism. On October 6, there was a short-term congestion in Jiaxing section of Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, and the system immediately pushed the diversion information and combined with "all the way and three parties" to quickly ease it. Henan focuses on the details of people’s livelihood, adding 2,800 toilet seats in 38 pairs of service areas and opening mobile toilets. "In the past, there was a queue to go to the toilet in the service area. Now there are so many new places, and paper towels are provided free of charge. It is so thoughtful." Master Zhao, the truck driver, praised the upgrade service in Luohe service area.
"In order to solve the problems such as highway congestion and long-term queuing of new energy vehicles, we have done a good job of unblocking roads and ensuring smoothness, and" one district and one policy "has improved the charging service support capacity of service areas. Special measures have also been formulated for road sections that are most prone to long-term congestion. " The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Transport suggested that passengers should make adequate preparations for driving, grasp the car condition, road conditions and weather conditions in advance, and arrange their trips reasonably.
Work together to get through the "last mile"
With the influx of return passengers from railways and highways into cities, Beijing, Guangzhou, Chongqing and other places have started traffic connection guarantee plans, and subways, buses and taxis have worked together to get through the "last mile" of return journey with accurate services.
During the National Day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday this year, delayed subway operation has become a common choice in all places. Eight subway lines in Beijing are delayed until 2 am the next day, and rail transit in Zhengzhou, Henan, Xiamen, Fujian, Nanjing, Jiangsu and other places also provide passengers with different degrees of delayed services. "During the eleventh period, nine lines of Chongqing rail transit were delayed. In order to cope with the pressure brought by the increase in operating shifts and the extension of operating hours on equipment maintenance, more than 200 maintenance personnel held their posts during the festival to fully ensure the safe and stable operation of trains." Wang Yun, manager of Chongqing Maintenance Company of China Railway 16th Bureau Group, said.
In addition, bus lines in major cities have further increased their connection with transportation hubs. Guangzhou, Guangdong dynamically extended 25 night bus lines, and the service time was synchronized with 20 minutes after the last train arrived. "When you leave Guangzhou South Railway Station, you will see the bus guide. The night shift line goes directly to the door of the community, which is more convenient than taking a taxi." Ms. Lin, a returning passenger, said. In view of the passenger flow in Beijing Road and other business districts, Guangzhou also encrypts the bus frequency, extends the service time, and ensures the citizens to travel at night.
As a "flexible force" for urban traffic connection, the taxi industry in various places has increased its security at the same time, and formulated special plans for the peak hours and key hubs of return passenger flow. In Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, the transportation department focused on hangzhou east railway station and Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, and 200 emergency taxis were added from 17: 00 every day to 2: 00 the next morning. In Chengdu, Sichuan, 12 temporary taxi stops were set around Chengdu East Railway Station and Chengdu Tianfu International Airport to solve the problem of "difficulty in finding a car".
The coordinated efforts of subway delay, bus encryption and rental increase have accurately connected the return passenger flow of this holiday. The transportation department said that it will continue to keep a close eye on the small peaks at night and subsequent return trips to ensure the smooth connection of the "last mile" and fully guarantee the safe return of passengers.
