The reporter learned from China National Railway Group Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "China Railway Group") that the railway Mid-Autumn Festival holiday transportation started today (18th), from September 18th to September 21st, a period of 4 days, the national railway is expected to send There are 40 million passengers, and 11 million passengers are expected to be sent on September 19, the peak day.

　　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.

　　One is to expand passenger transportation capacity.

The national railways implement peak train operation diagrams, give full play to the advantages of high-speed rail network operation and centralized and unified command, fully tap the transportation potential, increase the on-line rate of EMUs and locomotives, and meet the travel needs of passengers to the greatest extent.

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.

Measures such as re-connected operation of EMUs, operation of night EMUs, and increased Cape speed trains have been adopted 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.

　　The second is to do a good job in station passenger services.

Intensify the guarantee of basic services such as catering and water supply, implement the smooth flow of stations and trains, and dynamically increase the entry and exit security check and ticket inspection channels according to the passenger flow situation to reduce the waiting time of passengers in line.

Strengthen the connection with municipal transportation such as buses, subways, and taxis to open up the "last mile" of travel services.

We will do a good job in key passenger services for the elderly, sick, disabled, and pregnant, strengthen online appointment management, improve offline response efficiency, and provide green channels and caring services.

Ensure that the 12306 website and App are suitable for aging and stable operation of barrier-free functions, and retain manual ticket checking and cash transactions, so that the elderly, people with disabilities and people who are offline can travel more smoothly.

Expand new ticketing products such as counter tickets and commuter tickets to 12 routes to meet the differentiated travel needs of commuter and business travelers.

　　The third is to strengthen epidemic prevention and control measures.

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 railways.

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).

During the journey, please take good personal hygiene protection, cooperate with the railway department to implement the epidemic prevention measures for stations and trains, and jointly maintain a safe and healthy travel environment.
