  According to the person in charge of the Passenger Transport Department of China Railway Group, during the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, the passenger flow of railways has stabilized and rebounded. Judging from the pre-sale of railway 12306 tickets, it is expected that it will basically be restored to the level of the same period last year.

  The railway department coordinates epidemic prevention and control and transportation organization, analyzes passenger travel needs in advance, scientifically allocates transportation resources, optimizes train operation plans, improves passenger service quality, and strives to create a safe, healthy, warm and comfortable travel environment, so that passengers can spend a happy and peaceful time festival.

  In terms of expanding passenger transportation capacity, national railways implement peak train operation diagrams, take advantage of high-speed rail network operation and centralized transportation command, fully tap the transportation potential, increase the on-line rate of EMUs and locomotives, and maximize passenger travel needs.

According to the pre-sale and waiting ticket purchase data, the precise implementation of "one map per day" is to achieve matching capacity with passenger flow as much as possible.

  In addition, the railway department has adopted measures such as reconnected operation of EMUs, operation of night EMUs, and increased Cape speed trains to increase passenger transport capacity in popular directions and key areas.

Trains between major cities, especially those entering Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, are operated in full formations, and efforts are made to increase train seats.

In response to sudden passenger flows, flexibly add short-distance trains to provide passengers with more choices for travel.

  In addition, in strengthening the prevention and control of the epidemic, in response to the recent local epidemics in Xiamen, Putian, Quanzhou and other places in Fujian, the railway department strictly implemented the local prevention and control requirements and resolutely prevented the spread of the epidemic through the railway.

Strengthen the normalized epidemic prevention and control of trains and trains, strengthen measures such as entering and leaving the station temperature test code, ventilation and disinfection, sanitation and cleaning, standardize the establishment of train isolation seats, properly handle fever passengers, and promptly discourage those who do not meet the regulations from entering the station and riding the train.

Strengthen publicity and reminders, guide passengers to wear masks throughout the journey, reduce crowds, and make travel more secure and assured.

  The railway department reminds passengers and friends that the specific arrangements for train operation during the holidays can be found on the railway 12306 website (including the mobile client).
