The 2019 Spring Festival Transport will start on January 21st and end on March 1st. On January 11, Foshan Traffic Police Detachment held a press conference. It is expected that the number of passengers sent during the Spring Festival this year will exceed 15.5 million, a year-on-year increase of 10%.
Based on the traffic patterns and road traffic data of the Spring Festival travel period in the past three years, the city has simultaneously activated 16 Spring Festival travel service points, 40 "Ring Buddha Moat" police duty points, and 15 fixed traffic police law enforcement stations to strictly control the traffic when leaving the city and entering the city. There are three key checkpoints on highways and border crossings.
It is worth mentioning that there are many convenient services at the Spring Festival travel service points. Take the Zhangcha service station as an example. The service station is equipped with a variety of convenient service equipment, such as ginger tea, medical kits, and car repairs. Simple tools, etc.
Accidents are common during the peak period of Spring Festival travel.
The traffic police department revealed that based on big data analysis and judgment in the past three years, Foshan City’s Spring Festival road traffic situation mainly includes two aspects: road traffic safety and traffic congestion.
According to data analysis, the peak period of students and migrant workers' round-trip travel and the period before and after the Spring Festival holiday are the periods where accidents are most likely to occur. "Around the 4th, 26th and 36th days of Spring Festival travel, as traffic volume increases, accidents in these days also tend to be high." It was revealed.
In addition, accidents occur frequently during peak hours when citizens travel. The number of traffic accidents is closely related to the work and life patterns of citizens. The accident-prone period is generally the peak travel period, that is, 7:00-8:00, 18:00-19:00, and 21-22:00. In the past three years, traffic accidents have occurred during these three periods. Accounting for 19.3% of the total number of accidents
accidents involving motorcycles and buses are common. During the Spring Festival travel season, the number of round-trip passengers increases dramatically. A large number of passengers ride motorcycles and take buses to and from the city, which can easily lead to a high incidence of accidents involving motorcycles and buses. In the past three years, motorcycle accidents accounted for 43% of the total accidents in Foshan City, and passenger car accidents accounted for 38.4% of the total accidents.
Drunk driving and unlicensed driving accidents are common. From the perspective of traffic accidents caused by serious violations of the law in the past three years, drunk driving and unlicensed driving ranked top two, accounting for 12.3% and 10.7% of the total accidents respectively.
In response to traffic jams caused by traffic accidents on expressways, Luo Kang, leader of the Foshan Traffic Police Detachment, said, "During the Spring Festival travel period, the Municipal Traffic Police Detachment will set up a cavalry team to quickly deal with traffic accidents."
The amount of cross-border traffic before and after the Spring Festival travel rush to high speeds Easy to block
The traffic police department revealed that there are more congestion police cases before and after the Spring Festival travel season. Currently, there are still more than 100 road construction sections in Foshan City, which will have a certain impact on Spring Festival travel. In addition, highways are prone to congestion during the period before and after the Spring Festival holiday.
Foshan City is the transportation hub center of the Pearl River Delta, and is connected to important cities and regions such as Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Zhongshan, and western Guangdong. The large amount of cross-border traffic has led to a sharp increase in traffic pressure. Especially during the Spring Festival, highways are free of charge, and many highways Highway intersections are prone to congestion.

Main congested sections of the expressway
S15 Shenhai Expressway Guangzhou branch (Hengsha to Yayao section);

One block, one point, one plan, taking measures to relieve congestion and ensure smooth flow
"We will focus on the three major areas of cities, main roads, and rural areas to strictly prevent road traffic accidents." Luo Kang said that the city has sorted out the highways that are prone to congestion. There are 8 road sections, 16 of which are prone to congestion in each district, and in accordance with the requirements of the "One Blockage Point, One Plan", targeted measures to relieve congestion and ensure smooth flow have been formulated.
On January 11, the city simultaneously launched 16 Spring Festival travel service points, 40 "Rim Buddha Moat" police duty points, and 15 fixed traffic police law enforcement stations to strictly control the "three passes" of leaving the city, getting on the highway, and crossing the border.
The traffic police department will also strictly prevent rural traffic accidents. The city's 32 traffic management stations and 577 rural persuasion stations will be fully launched simultaneously to implement pre-job training and equipment for safety officers and coordinators, carry out traffic safety persuasion activities, promptly persuade and correct various illegal behaviors, and focus on persuading motorcycle driving. People "have license plates, wear helmets, limit two people, and keep to the right."
At the same time, the traffic police department will also strictly investigate outstanding illegal activities. In conjunction with the deployment of the Ministry of Public Security's "100-Day Security Action", the Foshan Traffic Police Detachment organized four major operations including drunk driving, fake license plates and fake certificates, rural vans, and national and provincial highway traffic order. Relying on scientific and technological means such as the highway prevention and control system, inspection and control system, eagle eye system, interval speed measurement, mobile speed measurement, and high-definition cameras, we can accurately crack down on various traffic violations.
