Different "Spring Festival Transport Roads" The Same Year of Reunion
In the days of Spring Festival Transport, all means of transportation, no matter where they start, point to one goal - reunion. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of transportation capacity and the diversification of travel methods, the way people reunite has gradually changed.
Among the Spring Festival travelers, some went home to reunite with their relatives like migratory birds; others traveled hundreds of kilometers in reverse to continue working. "Although there are thousands of twists and turns, people never look back." The Spring Festival Transport Road is not only a warm way home, but also a safe way to travel.
▶▷"Motorcycle Army"
ran for 9 consecutive hours just for reunion
In Pingyuan Chaozhu, Luo Wanjin and his wife Liu Zhaodi stopped at the service point of Chaozhu Squadron as volunteers waved. After the motorcycle stopped, Liu Zhaodi slowly got off the back seat of the motorcycle and relaxed her feet, which were stiff from the cold.
Like her husband, she tied a layer of plastic bags around her boots, covering her face tightly, leaving only a pair of smiling eyes. When it comes to going home to celebrate the New Year, Liu Zhaodi's chatter box suddenly opens up.
She told reporters that Lao Luo's family is in Ji'an, Jiangxi Province, and he has been working in Jieyang for 9 years. The couple are both construction workers, and their combined monthly salary is four to five thousand yuan. "My son is working in Shantou and may have to be late to return home. Fortunately, my younger daughter works in my hometown and we can see each other when we get back," Liu Zhaodi said.
Every Chinese New Year, Luo Wanjin and his wife ride their motorcycles home. "The train is inconvenient, and the bus is too expensive. I can't afford it." Luo Wanjin calculated an account for reporters: from Jieyang to Jiangxi, a one-way bus ticket costs 270 yuan, and he and his wife spend 1,000 yuan for a round trip. Diverse. In comparison, although it takes nearly 9 hours to ride a motorcycle, the fuel cost for the round trip is only more than 200 yuan.
There are many "motorcycle armies" passing through Meizhou like Luo Wanjin and his wife. Although he went out early in the morning and slept in the open air on the road, Luo Wanjin didn't feel it was very hard. "There are many service stations along the way. When you are tired, you can take a rest, drink a cup of ginger tea, and fill up the motorcycle with free gas."
"My daughter is also working as a service station volunteer for the motorcycle army in Jiangxi. She feels My parents were working outside and received help from strangers, so I also wanted to do some good things for these people who came home to celebrate the New Year." Liu Zhaodi couldn't help but smile when she talked about her family and reunion.
▶▷"Migratory Birds" on the Road
Family reunion is the "Spring Festival"
There are still more than three hours before the train arrives at the station, and Agola looked around boredly. Next to him, his wife was feeding milk powder to her three-month-old child. Because the youngest son was just born and it was freezing outside, Agora had to wait in the waiting room early.
"I am 33 years old this year and come from Xichang, Sichuan." Agorati's Mandarin is a bit jerky. Agorati has only been in Meizhou for four months. His two sisters and a brother-in-law were with his family of four. "We work as tree planters in Wuhua." Agorati told reporters that during the ten years he went out to work, he traveled all over the country, including Xinjiang, Shandong, Shanxi, as well as Guangzhou, Dongguan , and Guangzhou in Guangdong Province. Shenzhen, Foshan , Heyuan and other cities.
"We will go wherever there is work." During the Spring Festival every year, Agorati's family takes a train to the next place of work. In a corner of the waiting hall, next to the Agora body, there are a dozen large and small black bags piled up, which contain their clothing for all seasons and a few necessary daily necessities, as well as items sent from their hometown. Bacon.
Coincidentally, this time they did not go home to celebrate the New Year, but went to work in another city."We Yi people usually celebrate the New Year on January 1st, which is public every year. Regardless of the Gregorian calendar or the lunar calendar, as long as our family is together, we have celebrated the New Year." Agorati said happily explain.

Spring Festival travel has become a new fashion
As the Spring Festival approaches, every household has hung up red lanterns and is preparing to buy new year's goods to celebrate the new year. Mr. Pan's family, who lives next to Binfang Avenue in Jiangnan, is busy packing clothes and daily necessities at home, with several suitcases lined up in the living room. "The day after tomorrow, our family is planning to fly to Hainan for vacation during the New Year." Mr. Pan told reporters.
As early as last year, Mr. Pan had planned to take his parents and wife on a vacation during the Chinese New Year. Island vacations were his first choice. "After a whole year of hard work, the family goes out for a walk during the Spring Festival holiday, which is a new way of celebrating the New Year." Mr. Pan said.
In Mr. Pan’s circle of friends, this way of celebrating the New Year has gradually become popular in recent years. During the Spring Festival in previous years, Chinese people liked to visit relatives and friends to express holiday blessings. Nowadays, more and more people choose to travel with their families instead of going back to their hometowns for reunion dinners. Spring Festival travel has gradually become a New Year fashion for ordinary people.
Mr. Pan’s parents were very happy when they learned that their son was going to take them out. "Usually we old people don't know how to travel far away, and our children are also busy with work. It's not easy to bring the whole family together during the holidays. In previous years, my wife and I were busy during the Chinese New Year, but this year I also let my son be busy. We just want to be 'idlers'."
Not wanting to keep his parents busy is one of the reasons why Mr. Pan chooses to travel during the Spring Festival. The year before last, my father got seriously ill and stayed in the hospital for more than a month. "After my father recovered from his illness, I felt that I could no longer put off the plan to take my parents on a trip, so my wife and I made plans early and booked a hotel. Only by doing so can we have a healthy and safe family and have more reunion years." Mr. Pan said.
The pre-holiday travel peak will begin on February 10th
As the traditional Chinese Spring Festival approaches, the annual Spring Festival has begun, and many people have embarked on the journey back home.
According to Meizhou Railway Station ticket pre-sale statistics, Meizhou Railway Station sent approximately 8,485 passengers from February 1st to February 5th, with an average of 1,697 passengers per day. "The current passenger flow is mainly migrant workers from other provinces returning home. Train tickets from Meizhou to places outside the province such as Nanchang, Wuchang, Kunming and other places have all been sold out." Meizhou Railway Station staff told reporters.
At the same time, from February 1st to February 5th, 6,835 passengers arrived at Meizhou Railway Station, with an average daily arrival of 1,367.

During the Spring Festival, it was difficult to get a ticket, causing many people who were preparing to go home to celebrate the New Year to seek new ways, and the number of people driving home by themselves also increased year by year. "I didn't get a train ticket home, so I rented a car and carpooled home with my friends." Mr. Zhao, who works in Meizhou, told reporters that many friends around him also chose to drive home this year.
The diversified travel modes during the New Year benefit from the development of transportation in Meizhou. In 2017, the total mileage of expressways in the city increased by 14% year-on-year; the total mileage of national highways increased nearly 1.5 times; and the total mileage of provincial highways increased by 75.67% year-on-year.

Coupled with the number of local motor vehicles, the pressure on travel during the Spring Festival will be greatly increased." said the relevant person in charge of the Meizhou Municipal Transportation Bureau.
According to statistics, the number of motor vehicles in the city in 2017 was 719,063, a year-on-year increase of 30.46%; of which the number of cars increased by 27.7%, and the number of motorcycles increased by 34.6%; there were 1,044,768 drivers in the city, a year-on-year increase of 5.1%.
The city has 11 Spring Festival travel service points and 6 convenience service points
Every year during the Spring Festival, thousands of migrant workers in Meizhou and surrounding cities return to their hometowns on motorcycles to celebrate the New Year. Motorcycles are their go-to when returning home and during the Spring Festival. The main means of transportation is "to visit relatives and friends during the New Year. For rural areas in mountainous areas, having a motorcycle is very convenient." said Ms. Liu, who works in Shantou.
Based on the characteristics of long-distance motorcycles returning home during the Spring Festival in previous years, Meizhou City Fengshun, Meijiang, and Pingyuan have set up 6 convenience service points based on local conditions to provide food, tea, cold-proof items, vehicle repair tools, etc., such as heat Ginger soup, hot noodles, warm patches, masks, motorcycle repair tools, chilblain ointment, eye drops and trauma emergency medicine, etc., are provided to improve convenience facilities to ensure the safe and smooth passage of the "motorcycle army" from Fujian and Jiangxi through Meizhou's jurisdiction, and also to allow "iron riders" "Army" can feel the warmth of home even before arriving home.
