China Transportation News Reporter:
New Year's Day and the Spring Festival are approaching. What predictions have the Ministry of Transport predicted passenger flow during the New Year's Day holiday and Spring Festival travel period, and what measures have been taken in coordinating epidemic prevention and control and serving passenger transportation? Thanks.
Deputy Director of the Emergency Office of the Ministry of Transport Zhuo Li:
Thank you for your question!
According to preliminary forecasts, the overall passenger flow during the New Year's Day holiday is stable, and the number of passengers nationwide is expected to be about 80 million, a decrease from last year. The 2022 Spring Festival travel rush will start from January 17 and end from February 25, a total of 40 days. According to preliminary forecasts, the national passenger volume during the Spring Festival travel rush will increase significantly compared with 870 million passengers in 2021, and will even exceed 1.48 billion passengers in 2020. The overall performance is "median passenger traffic operation, little change in passenger flow composition, relatively concentrated travel after the holiday, and tidal distribution of passenger flow in time and space". From the perspective of passenger flow composition, migrant flow, visiting relatives flow, and student flow are still the main passenger flow during the Spring Festival travel rush; from the perspective of time distribution, passenger flow before the festival is stable, and multiple passenger flows are superimposed after the festival; from the perspective of spatial distribution, it is basically consistent with previous years, and the passenger flow distribution is uneven, and the spatial movement of passenger flow generally shows tidal characteristics.
In order to coordinate the transportation work during the Spring Festival travel rush, our department will work with 14 departments and units to establish a special working team for the Spring Festival travel rush rush rush to coordinate the prevention and control of transportation, transportation guarantee, safety supervision, and convenience services. We will take a series of strong and warm measures to ensure that the people travel efficiently and conveniently.
First, guide transportation departments at all levels to strictly and tightly prevent and control the transportation epidemic. Urge and guide passenger transport operators to strictly check passenger health code , timely increase entry and security inspection channels; implement requirements such as zoning and graded passenger loading rate control, disinfection and ventilation in accordance with regulations, and strengthen epidemic prevention and control in the route. Guide local transportation departments to conscientiously implement relevant requirements for epidemic prevention and control during the Beijing Winter Olympics, strengthen remote source inspections, and strictly check the "green code" of people entering Beijing and those entering Beijing and Zhang nucleic acid tests negative certificates. Strictly implement the policy of "passenger and cargo suspension" inbound transportation at highway and water transport ports, and keep a firm grasp of the "prevention of imports from outside".
The second is to work hard to ensure the safety of production. Guide local governments to strengthen dynamic supervision of ", two passengers and one dangerous " and heavy trucks, and urge passenger stations to strictly implement the "three no entry and six no exit" system. Guide local transportation departments to strengthen joint law enforcement and severely investigate and punish illegal operation of road passenger transportation in accordance with the law. Optimize and improve emergency plans for emergencies, and do a good job in services and transferring stranded passengers in extreme and severe weather.
The third is to strengthen the service guarantee work for Spring Festival travel. Urge and guide local governments to strengthen road network operation monitoring during peak passenger flow, sections that are prone to severe weather, and sections that are frequently affected by accidents, and release road conditions information through multiple channels. Strictly implement the policy of free passage of small passenger cars on major holidays. Strengthen the control of traffic control for important channels and important nodes to ensure the smooth and orderly trunk road network. Guide local governments to take more humane, refined and quality service measures. Strengthen the deployment and emergency dispatch of transportation capacity in key areas such as passenger hub stations and tourist attractions, strengthen the coordination and connection between urban transportation and railway trains and civil aviation flights, and resolutely prevent large-scale passenger stays; strengthen communication and cooperation with human resources and social security departments to provide "point-to-point" transportation services for migrant workers returning home; actively carry out online ticket sales and customized passenger services, and strengthen special passenger services such as the elderly, young, sick, disabled and pregnant. Through our tangible improvement and optimization services, passengers' journey home is more warm and comfortable.
Thank you!
