It is estimated that the passenger traffic trips of the whole city will reach 6.06 million during the Spring Festival travel season in 2024, and the cross-regional population migration volume of the whole society will reach a record high! This latest news is what the reporter learned on January 25 from 2024 Video and Telephone Conference on Hengyang City Spring Festival Travel Season Work.

According to the city's Spring Festival Transport Coordination Group, during this year's Spring Festival travel season, the migration of visiting relatives, students, migrant workers and tourism will be superimposed at a high level, and the number of passengers in the city may reach 6.06 million. With an increase of 22.53% over the same period last year, the number of people moving across regions in the whole society will reach a record high. At the same time, as the public travel habits have undergone profound structural changes, coupled with the free charge of passenger car tolls policy during Spring Festival holidays and other factors, the proportion of self-driving travel in our city will also hit a record high. At that time, the safety emergency guarantee and smooth logistics traffic may face greater challenges.

Facing all kinds of pressure, on the one hand, our city will strengthen the dynamic analysis and judgment of the passenger flow of the Spring Festival travel season, and accurately grasp the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics, such as the flow of migrant workers, tourists and students. We will make overall arrangements for the allocation of comprehensive transportation resources. On the other hand, it will strengthen the capacity reserve of railways, highways, water transport, civil aviation, postal express delivery and urban passenger transport, and guide transportation enterprises according to the changing characteristics of demand. We will make full use of transportation capacity, and comprehensively improve the support capacity of comprehensive transportation in the Spring Festival.

The reporter also learned that in order to provide better heart-warming services to the vast number of travelers, during the Spring Festival travel season, the transportation department of our city will also unite with the Communist Youth League to organize and mobilize volunteers in the front-line of the Spring Festival travel season, such as passenger transport hubs, bus and expressway service areas. We will carry out the Spring Festival Travel Volunteer Service Activity of "Warm Travel in winter", strive to solve the problems of people's urgent difficulties and worries in traveling, and polish the service brand of "Hengyang People".
