For those who really need to check the health code according to the requirements of epidemic prevention and control, the transportation field has optimized the services of staff to check on behalf of the staff and register with valid certificates. All passenger terminals and expressway service areas have retained manual services; some areas where conditions permit, Cities such as Changzhou have set up channels without a health code in passenger terminals to ensure that the elderly can travel without a health code.

They have all realized "one-click car-hailing" before the Spring Festival; Shenzhen, Shanghai and other places are in major transportation hub stations, hotels, tourist attractions and The key business districts have installed the "one-click car-hailing" equipment for cruising taxis; Xi'an and other places provide "one-to-one" pairing guarantee services for the elderly who have fixed car needs and the elderly with disabilities; guide Chinese taxis The Car Rental Association has issued the "Two Priorities and Three Guarantees" initiative to the entire industry to encourage patrolling taxi companies and drivers to give priority to the needs of the elderly to call for taxis.

  The third is to retain manual service windows at passenger terminals.

All local automobile passenger stations, passenger terminals, urban rail transit stations, expressway service areas, and toll stations retain manual service windows to provide convenient services and assistance such as consultation and guidance for the elderly to ensure worry-free travel for the elderly.

  Sun Wenjian said that in the next step, we will continue to follow the "Notice" deployment, pay close attention to the travel needs of the elderly, and continue to improve the service level of "aging" transportation, so that the elderly will have more sense of gain, happiness, and happiness in the trend of the "intelligent age".
