National Day holiday is coming soon. On September 28, a reporter from Upstream News learned from Chongqing Expressway Group that it is estimated that the traffic volume of the entire road network during the 2022 National Day holiday is about 9.469 million vehicles. In order to enable citizens to travel safely and conveniently during the holidays, Chongqing Expressway Group has formulated a travel service guide for the National Day holiday.
Around 18:00 on September 30, the first wave of small outbound peak will appear. Comprehensive analysis is expected to be about 9.469 million vehicles during the National Day holiday in 2022, with an average of about 1.353 million vehicles per day, a decrease of 16.2% from the same period of National Day in 2021 and an increase of about 58.3% from the weekly period. On October 1, the highest daily traffic flow was expected to be about 1.567 million vehicles. It is estimated that the average daily traffic flow in and out of the country is about 240,000, of which the average daily traffic flow in and out of the country is about 119,000, and the average daily traffic flow out of the country is about 121,000.
According to the relevant person in charge of Chongqing Expressway Group, the overall traffic flow of the expressway network will show a "high at the beginning and low at the end" during the National Day holiday in 2022. It is expected that some publics will choose to travel in advance. From 16:00 on September 30, the traffic flow across the road will gradually increase, and the first small peak of departure will appear around 18:00, mainly spreading from the central urban area to surrounding districts and counties. The import and export flow in the central urban area will surge, and the traffic flow in the surrounding toll stations may be in a blowout trend, which is more prone to slow traffic and congestion. On October 1 (the first day of the National Day holiday), the peak of travel will occur around 10:00; on October 1, it reached the highest peak of travel on a single day, with an estimated 1.567 million vehicles; as the public's awareness of traveling at staggered and staggered peaks increases, the traffic flow from returning to the National Day holiday will stabilize.
These sections are prone to congestion
During the National Day holiday, sections such as G65 Baomao Expressway Ring Chongqing-Xiangsui Interchange to Shilong Interchange, G93 Chengdu-Chongqing Ring Expressway Yusui Section, G75 Lanhai Expressway Sanxikou Interchange to Beibei Interchange, S39 Chongqing-Changhai Double Line Expressway Shimiao Interchange to Yuyi Interchange and other sections are prone to congestion.
During the National Day holiday, there is one construction occupancy point with a great traffic impact. It is at the entrance of the G65 Banan main line toll station in the G65 Yuxiang Expressway boundary water section. Citizens can detour the remaining entrance lanes of the G65 Banan main line toll station.
hereby specifically reminds the general public that the deadline for free highways is 24:00 on October 7, and the time when the vehicle leaves the exit toll lane shall prevail.
Please arrange your travel time reasonably, grasp the road conditions and weather conditions along the way in advance, and try to avoid peak and off-peak travel to avoid congestion. If you encounter an emergency while driving, you can call the Chongqing Expressway 023-12122 road condition consultation and rescue service hotline (please call 110 for highway traffic accident alarm).
