In order to facilitate passengers' holiday travel, on April 30, May 1 and May 5, the Changsha Metro network will extend the operation service until 24:00 (of which the Hongqiao-Xiangtan North Station section of the West Ring Line will be extended to 23:00).
In order to ensure the safety and orderliness of passenger transport on the line network during the holiday, Changsha Metro has organized a professional team to investigate and rectify the special hidden dangers of various equipment facilities and key points of passenger safety; during the holiday, it will also strengthen the inspection and maintenance of key equipment such as platform doors, escalators, vertical ladders, etc., and do a good job in the fine inspection and repair of passenger trains.
Changsha Metro will increase the number of trains on each line, shorten the interval between trains, and flexibly take measures such as adding spare trains and increasing stop time to ensure the orderly travel of passengers. If the pressure on passenger flow cannot be alleviated, the station may implement passenger flow control measures according to the needs of the site. There are often citizens and netizens who are puzzled or curious about the rail transit passenger flow control measures, and today I will give you a focus on popular science. What is Passenger Flow Control?
When the number of passengers on a subway station or train continues to increase and reaches a certain level, the station will take measures to ensure the safety of operation by controlling the number of passengers in the area to ensure that passengers get on and off the train in a safe and orderly manner.
Why do you need to do people flow control?
Some passengers did not understand the implementation of passenger flow control at the station and thought that it was artificially congested, but in fact it was not. During peak travel hours or holidays, in order to ensure the safety of passengers and smooth travel, the station needs to ensure a balanced and orderly passenger flow in all areas of the station. When the passenger flow continues to increase, if measures are not taken to control it in time, it will lead to passenger congestion and crossing, chaos and chaos of passenger flow, as well as passengers unable to get on and off the train smoothly or hinder the normal closure of the door, which may not only cause the train to be delayed, but also have safety risks such as platform doors, door clamping or personnel stepping on in serious cases. Similarly, when the flow of outbound passengers is too large, if measures are not taken to guide passengers to exit the station quickly, it will also lead to excessive saturation of the station content, which will bring certain safety risks. Therefore, the station needs to control the passenger flow according to the on-site situation.
What will the staff do when there is a large flow of passengers?
When a large passenger flow occurs into the station, the station will take measures such as railing bypassing, entering the station in batches, setting the turnstile to normally open, changing the direction of the escalator or shutting down the escalator, one-way passage at the entrance and exit (only entering and exiting or only entering and exiting) or temporary closure according to the passenger flow situation, and apply to the control center to organize the standby car online or the train to clear the empty load to the large passenger flow station to transport passengers at the gate according to the situation, so as to meet the needs of passenger flow relief.
When there is a large outbound passenger flow, the station will speed up the exit of passengers by opening the green channel, opening the exit gate often, manually recovering the one-way ticket, changing the direction of the escalator, etc., and when the outbound passenger flow continues to increase and the station is oversaturated, measures such as some entrances and exits can only not enter and exit, and trains do not stop passing through the station to relieve the pressure.
What should I do when I encounter a large number of subway passengers?
Orderly entry and exit of the station
If you encounter a detour of the railing, temporary closure of the passage, and only entry and exit/no entry and exit, please wait patiently and take care of the elderly and children, queue up in and out of the station in an orderly manner, do not push, squat at will, and do not climb over the railing.
Actively cooperate with security checks
When there is a large flow of passengers entering the station, please follow the guidance of the staff to pass in an orderly manner. Taking out metal items in your pockets in advance for inspection and proactively passing packages, luggage, etc. through the plane will help improve the efficiency of security screening and speed up the entry process.
Avoid crowd congestion
Most passengers are accustomed to waiting near the escalator, which is easy to cause congestion at the escalator entrance of the platform, and there are great potential safety hazards. When the train arrives at the station and opens the door, do not rush up, pay attention to the first down and then the up, the middle and the two sides, which can not only ensure the efficiency of traffic but also highlight the degree of civilization in Star City.
Pay attention to the safety of the elevator
When taking the escalator, you should stand firmly, do not look down at your mobile phone, and do not lean on the elevator or play around. Do not stay at the escalator entrance after arriving at the destination floor, so as not to obstruct the passage of subsequent passengers and cause a safety incident. If you are traveling with the elderly, children or large luggage, please try to take the vertical elevator.
