From railway to highway, from excellent service to solving problems, take measures to ＂warm＂ Spring Festival travel rush’s journey home

CCTV News:During the period of Spring Festival travel rush, the passenger flow of Shenzhen Railway maintained a high level and rose steadily, and the peak of passenger flow before the holiday was coming. In order to meet the travel needs of passengers, since February 3, Shenzhen Railway Department has successively opened several high-speed trains at night.

At 00: 10am on February 3rd, the first night high-speed train G4598 from Spring Festival travel rush in Shenzhen in 2024 departed from Shenzhen North Station and ended at Wuzhou South Station. More than 1,000 passengers took this high-speed train to go home.

In Spring Festival travel rush in 2024, according to the pre-sale of tickets and the standby ticket purchase of 12306, the Shenzhen Railway Department increased the capacity in popular directions. On February 3-4 and 6-9, 48 night high-speed trains were added from Shenzhen North Station to Chengdu, Guiyang, Nanchang, Changsha South, Wuhan, Zhengzhou East, Zhanjiang and Chaoshan, and 6 night general-speed passenger trains were added from Shenzhen East Station and Shenzhen Station to Changsha and Yueyang.

During the night high-speed rail operation, Shenzhen Railway also contacted the local transportation department to connect with the surrounding public transportation service hours such as buses and subways, so as to realize the "zero-distance connection" for passengers to travel at night and ensure the "last mile" for passengers to travel.

Pre-holiday peak arrival "charging battery life" home road

In Spring Festival travel rush this year, there are many passengers traveling by car, which is the main artery of north-south traffic in China — — In the service area of Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway, the number of new energy vehicles charged these days is 10 times more than usual. Is the charging pile enough? What is the charging efficiency? The reporter came to the scene to find out.

CCTV reporter Chen Xi:I am now at the entrance of Baoding service area of Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway, about 150 kilometers south of Beijing. As you can see, these vehicles leave Beijing and arrive here in about 2 hours. They will refuel, eat and rest in the service area.

Facing the structural changes of self-driving travel, before Spring Festival travel rush this year, 12 high-power charging piles were built in Baoding service area ahead of schedule, and now 20 new energy vehicles can be charged at the same time. Near noon, more and more cars entered the service area. The reporter noticed that all charging piles in the service area were running at full load.

New energy owner Feng Wei:Hello, big brother, there are so many cars. When can I charge this car?

Hebei Baoding service area staff:Don’t worry, we have already dispatched, and the mobile charging car will come soon.

Huo Guoqing, Marketing Manager of a New Energy Technology Company:Four cars can be guaranteed at a time, and more than 100 trains a day (one charging car can charge), and the fixed piles here can basically meet the use of Baoding service area.

The reason why the mobile charging car can be dispatched in time is because there is a "smart brain" behind it. There are seven service areas along the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway. The "small dispatch" can dispatch the charging piles in each service area, while the smart dispatch center 100 kilometers away connects the seven scattered service areas into a "line" through the "big dispatch" to co-ordinate all 84 charging piles and 3 mobile charging vehicles on the whole expressway.

During the period of Spring Festival travel rush, the number of new energy vehicles traveling on expressways in Hebei Province is expected to reach about 3.5 million, and the charging pressure is huge. In addition to the "on-demand charging" charging method of charging piles, Hebei Province has also added 50 power stations, with a total of 65. The reporter saw at the scene that it only takes 3 minutes for the new energy vehicle to change the battery, and the replaced battery is left in the power station for charging, and the owner behind can recycle it.

New energy owner Zhou Yadong:There are still about nine hours to go to Xi ‘an, about once every 200 kilometers (battery) and four times (battery to Xi ‘an). It is more convenient to change electricity all the way through our route.

In order to cope with the large passenger flow in Spring Festival travel rush this year, the Hebei Provincial Department of Transportation built 293 highway charging piles in 2023, with a total of 962; 50 new power stations have been added, which is more than three times higher than before, fully ensuring the "rechargeable battery life" on Spring Festival travel rush Road.
