Changping Line and Batong Line of Beijing Metro Begins Today to Reduce the Minimum Traveling Interval by Using Extraordinary Train Operation Maps

China News Network, Beijing, March 24th (Chen Hang) Deputy Director and spokesman of the Beijing Municipal Transportation Commission, Rong Jun, said at a press conference on the 24th that starting today, the Changping Line and the Batong Line will be the first to use ultra-normal trains Illustration. The minimum driving interval on the Changping line was reduced from 3 minutes and 40 seconds to 2 minutes, and the minimum driving interval on the Batong line was reduced from 2 minutes and 50 seconds to 1 minute and 58 seconds. The full load rate of larger sections will be greatly eased.

Rong Jun said that yesterday, many people reported that Monday morning rush hour road traffic was more congested, and called for the restoration of traffic restrictions, and some people reported that the subway was more crowded.

Road traffic to commute to the main morning peak peak congestion

Since February, under the circumstances of the school's postponement of school start, most units' delayed start or flexible office, remote office, and suspension of the implementation of motor vehicle tail number restrictions, February and March (as of March 23) Beijing City Center The urban road traffic index during peak hours during the working day was 2.08 and 3.84, down 42% and 36% from the same period last year.

As the proportion of resumption of work and production in March has picked up week by week, traffic has gradually picked up recently, and road traffic pressure during peak hours has increased.

Take the morning peaks of eight Mondays on February 3, 10, 17, and 24; March 2, 9, 16, 16 and 23 as an example. The weekly road traffic index has increased, and all of them are on Monday. Week peak. On Monday, March 23, the peak average traffic index was 5.04 (peak 8.01), the highest value since the working day in February.

Compared with the smooth traffic conditions in the previous stage, the feeling of congestion is more obvious.

Rong Jun said that from the specific monitoring data, there is no big difference between the congested road section and the normal state, but the period and duration of the congestion show the following characteristics:

First, the congestion during the morning peak is higher than the evening peak, mainly because commuting is the main type of travel at present, and the elastic demand for shopping and entertainment at the late peak has been greatly reduced.

The second is that although the peak congestion is higher, the duration of mild and above congestion levels is significantly shorter than normal. For example, the morning peak peak of mild congestion lasted 2 hours and 45 minutes this week, while the normal working day during the same period was 3 hours and 45 minutes.

Third, there is something wrong during peak hours. Recently, the morning peak has entered a mild congestion state from 7:30, and the peak appears at 8:30 to 9:00, which is 30 minutes later than the previous normal working day. The morning peak ends at about 10 o'clock; the evening peak From 17:15 to 19:30, the peak appears at 18: 15-18: 45, which is 15 minutes later than the previous working day.

In general, last week was the seventh week of resumption of work. The average road traffic index during the peak hours of the working day was 4.21, which returned to 65% of the daily work value. The average daily number of passenger cars on the road rose to 2.68 million, returning to 68% of the normal value. On Monday morning, the average road traffic index of 5.34 recovered to 77% of the normal Monday morning peak, especially yesterday, the road traffic index lasted 30 minutes from 8:30 to 9:00, and the index reached 8.0, making travelers feel “more congested”, but In fact, it has not yet returned to the normal working day level. The Monday morning peak of commuting and commuting in the past had severe congestion for more than an hour under the condition that the number was restricted at the end.

Rong Jun said that with Beijing's active and orderly resumption of work and production, the road traffic index will return to about 85% of normal working days at the end of March, and road traffic congestion during the peak working days after the Qingming Festival will basically return to normal working days. Level.

Changping line and Batong line shorten the minimum driving interval

Recently, the average daily passenger volume of rail transit has increased rapidly. On March 23, Beijing's rail transit passenger volume was 3.111 million, an increase of 165.86% month-on-month, but a year-on-year decrease of 74.88% and only restored to 25% of the normal value. On the 23rd, the maximum cross-section load rate of the entire network was 43% (Maquanying Station of Line 15 to Cuigezhuang Station, 8:00 to 9:00). Operating companies opened a total of 37 passenger lines on Line 13, Line 6, Batong Line, and Changping Line. During peak hours, 29 stations on 5 lines adopted temporary traffic restrictions.

In order to better support subway operation during epidemic prevention and control, to better cope with the increase in passenger flow, reduce train congestion, and improve passenger comfort and safety, Beijing Metro will further take extraordinary and strong measures to improve the overall transport efficiency of the rail network. .

From today, the Changping Line and Batong Line will take the lead in using the ultra-conventional train map. The minimum driving interval on the Changping line was reduced from 3 minutes and 40 seconds to 2 minutes, and the minimum driving interval on the Batong line was reduced from 2 minutes and 50 seconds to 1 minute and 58 seconds. The full load rate of larger sections will be greatly eased.

Bus will welcome passenger growth in the next two to three weeks

The passenger traffic of conventional ground buses reached 2.894 million passengers yesterday, an increase of 41.08% month-on-month, a decrease of 70.03% year-on-year, a return to the normal value of 31%, and a maximum full load rate of 43.01%.

Since the launch of the “Beijing Customized Bus Upgraded Version” WeChat Mini Program on February 25, the number of return-to-work custom public transport lines has increased to 223, with an average of 255 departures per day and 4,411 passengers, and the average seat load of vehicles has always been controlled below 50%. It effectively meets the needs for safe and efficient travel of enterprises and individuals who have resumed work and production.

Rong Jun said that it is expected that in the next two to three weeks, passenger traffic will further increase rapidly. The bus group will accurately collect line demand from key areas such as Huilongguan, Tiantongyuan, Wangjing, Financial Street, and CBD, and continue to do so based on online pre-sale volume. Preparations for opening new lines and increasing shifts.

In addition, the average daily passenger traffic of taxis in Beijing (including online taxis) reached 880,000, returning to 29% of the normal value; the number of shared bicycle rides reached 590,000, returning to 54% of the normal value. Judging from the data, although shared bicycles share a part of the travel volume, the tendency of car travel choices is still obvious.

Rong Jun pointed out that the city's rail transit and ground bus operating units are required to implement various safety prevention and control measures in strict accordance with the epidemic prevention standards. There must be no relaxation at all, and supervision and inspection must be strengthened. Recently, the disease control department has conducted sampling tests on various parts of public transportation. It is negative, which means that public transportation is safe.

Suggested commute to work

Rong Jun mentioned that in view of the current high risk of imported epidemics abroad, in order to avoid the focus of people during commuting, Beijing has not yet resumed the restriction of motor vehicle tail number, and it is inevitable that the pressure on the road network continues to increase. It is suggested that all social units should continue to implement flexible working methods such as flexible working system, home office, AB shift, and shift to and from work in accordance with the municipal government's requirement that the employment rate of intensive enterprises should not exceed 50%.

As early as 2010, Beijing issued a notice to further improve measures for commuting at different times. Beijing's central state agencies and their affiliated social organizations and institutions, Beijing's party and government agencies at all levels, social organizations, institutions, schools, hospitals, large-scale comprehensive The commuting hours of commercial facilities and other facilities have been optimized and achieved significant results. However, other economic organizations, which account for 78% of the employed population, still determine their commute time for themselves, and most of them are concentrated between 8:30 and 9:00.

Rong Jun said that, in light of the current situation, it is recommended that these units be arranged at 30-minute intervals between 8:00 and 10:00 to further arrange work hours in a wrong time and in a balanced manner. In principle, you can use the building as a unit to achieve the time-off balance of the legal units in the building. If there is only one legal unit in a building, or due to the large amount of legal units in a single building, it is impossible to achieve the time-off balance in the building. Achieve a balance within the buildings and industrial parks.

Rong Jun said that in the next step, consultations with all districts and streets will be strengthened with units in the jurisdiction. (Finish)
