Transportation and logistics is the meridian of the modern economy and an important support for people's livelihood, and it is also an extremely important part of coordinating epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development.
At present, the work of ensuring the smooth flow of logistics across the country is gradually changing from fully opening up the aorta and basically smoothing the microcirculation, to consolidating and expanding the achievements of ensuring smooth logistics and promoting the efficient operation of the industrial chain and supply chain.
How can truck drivers strengthen health protection?
What are the channels for grievances when trucks are blocked?
What has the Ministry of Transport done in coordinating epidemic prevention and control?
The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Transport responded at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Transport held on the 26th.
Take multiple measures to strengthen the health protection of truck drivers
Freight vehicles have a wide range of travel and long operation chains. Truck drivers, especially those who run long distances, are highly mobile and have many contacts.
Under the epidemic situation, how to coordinate the epidemic prevention and control work in the freight field and strengthen the health protection of truck drivers?
"Expanding the coverage of free nucleic acid testing will make truck drivers more comfortable." Li Huaqiang, deputy director of the Transportation Service Department of the Ministry of Transport, introduced that by guiding localities in expressway service areas, toll station squares and other places with high traffic flow, encryption settings are free of charge. Nucleic acid testing points, with sufficient testing force, optimize the testing process, continue to expand the coverage of free testing, and reduce the troubles caused by the inconvenience of nucleic acid testing to truck drivers.
The emergency material transfer station is the basis for ensuring the supply of key production and living materials under the conditions of epidemic control.
Li Huaqiang said that the Ministry of Transport, together with relevant departments, guided the epidemic-related areas to open more than 200 emergency supplies transfer stations one after another, and implemented "point-to-point" closed-loop management for drivers and passengers entering and leaving the transfer stations. No contact with personnel is required to effectively protect the health and safety of employees.
According to the operating characteristics of truck drivers, combined with the new situation and changes in the epidemic, the guidelines for epidemic prevention and control in the freight industry are also being dynamically updated.
Li Huaqiang said that the Ministry of Transport has refined the specific requirements for vehicle disinfection, mask wearing, body temperature monitoring, nucleic acid testing, vaccination, information registration, etc., and strictly implement normalized epidemic prevention and control measures to prevent the epidemic from passing through freight logistics. channel dissemination.
Regarding the personal protection of truck drivers in the process of transportation and operation, Li Huaqiang also reminded the majority of truck drivers of the "three avoidances": "When loading and unloading goods, avoid frequent close contact with loading and unloading personnel; stop in low-risk areas. When traveling, avoid slack thoughts and communicate with people without wearing a mask; when traveling through medium and high-risk areas, avoid long stops."
Implement list management to get rid of truck travel jams
What should I do if I encounter problems such as blocking the passage of trucks?
"Please call the 12328 hotline or the special duty phone number in time, and we will coordinate and solve it in time." Li Huaqiang said.
For more than a month, the Ministry of Transport has given full play to the role of the 12328 transportation service supervision telephone, and has collected and grasped clues to problems through public opinion monitoring in a timely manner. Principles, implement problem list management, establish a supervision and transfer system, coordinate and deal with each case, and cancel each item one by one to ensure that problems are resolved in a timely manner.
"More than 1,900 freight vehicle traffic obstruction problems have been solved in total, and more than 8,400 key material transportation needs have been coordinated and guaranteed in a timely manner," said Li Huaqiang.
From the perspective of the timeliness of coordinated processing, Li Huaqiang introduced that the complaints and reports received by the Ministry of Transport’s 24-hour on-duty call can generally be coordinated and resolved on the same day; for specific issues such as arbitrary restrictions on the passage of trucks and arbitrary persuasion to return, usually in the It can be resolved within 2 to 3 hours; matters involving local institutional policy adjustments have also been resolved within 2 to 3 days.
The blocking points are gradually being cleared, which is also reflected in the relevant data:
In April, there were many complaints and reports from truck drivers, mainly reflecting the excessive control and control problems such as layer-by-layer increase of truck traffic and “one-size-fits-all”. During peak hours, more than 200 complaints and reports were made every day.
Since the beginning of May, the matters of answering calls are mainly policy consultation. The average daily number of complaints and reporting calls is basically about 20, and some time periods are even only single digits.
"Overall, the phenomenon of excessive control of freight vehicles has been reduced from a national general problem to a local case problem." Li Huaqiang said.
Implement key measures to ensure smooth logistics
Recently, the epidemic situation in some areas is still relatively severe. What has the Ministry of Transport done in coordinating epidemic prevention and control?
"Adhere to 'foreign prevention of import, internal prevention of rebound', adhere to 'dynamic clearing', on the basis of guiding local transportation departments to do a good job in epidemic prevention and control, make every effort to ensure basic travel services and logistics in epidemic-related areas. work," said Liu Pengfei, a spokesman for the Ministry of Transport.
To give full play to the role of the State Council Leading Group Office for Logistics Guaranteeing and Smoothing, a series of measures to focus on outstanding issues and implement key systems have been released one after another:
Revise relevant prevention and control guidelines and strengthen daily dispatch supervision; instruct Beijing and other epidemic-related areas to suspend external road passenger transport services, urban buses and trams, taxis (including online car-hailing), and ride-hailing services in county-level administrative regions where medium-risk and high-risk areas are located in a timely manner cross-city business; implement detour or drop-off transportation for urban buses, trams and rail transit lines passing through the closed and controlled areas; activate emergency transport fleets in time, and formulate emergency transport security plans for key personnel and social emergency travel security plans ...
"In the next step, the Ministry of Transport will continue to do a good job in the prevention and control of the epidemic in transportation, and effectively ensure the safe and orderly travel of the people and the smooth transportation of key materials, so as to provide strong support for coordinating epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development." Liu Pengfei said. .
