In order to cope with the peak of passenger flow, the national railway implements the peak line operation map, and plans to run more than 12,000 passenger trains per day, an increase of more than 1,800 trains compared with the daily schedule. In Shenyang, Zhengzhou, Chengdu, Xiamen and other areas where passenger flow is concentrated, the railway department has taken measures such as adding high-speed rail moving sleeper trains, reconnecting EMUs, and adding carriages to general-speed passenger trains, so as to increase the capacity of popular areas, routes and time periods in a timely manner.
The proportion of self-driving on highway travel is about eighty percent, and the charging of new energy vehicles is guaranteed

The highway service area with greater demand for charging during the holiday is mainly concentrated in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta and other surrounding areas of the road network, and the Ministry of Transport timely guides all localities through the construction of high-power charging facilities, reasonable allocation of mobile charging facilities, and strengthening measures such as charging queuing in the service area during the holidays.

May 1 is the peak of railway passenger flow during the May Day holiday
On May 1, the "May Day" holiday officially opened. According to the forecast of railway 12306 pre-sale data, May 1 will be the peak of railway passenger flow during the five days of the "May Day" holiday. Where will the people who embark on the journey go?
This is a heat map based on the pre-sale data of 12306 train tickets, the darker the red, the more people who took the train to the city on May 1, and the darker the blue, the more people who went out of the city. It can be seen that central cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Wuhan, Zhengzhou, and Xi'an are cities with large net outflows.
The red color, which represents the net inflow of tourists, accounts for the vast majority of the city's total, reaching 80% of the total number of cities, and even 10% higher than on April 30. Among these cities, cities such as Luoyang, Chaozhou, Dali, Fuyang and Handan have become destinations with large net inflows of tourists, which means that more people are moving from central cities to small and medium-sized cities on the first day of the holiday.
A number of routes welcomed more inter-provincial travelers on May 1
According to the data, Beijing-Tianjin, Chongqing-Chengdu, Shanghai-Nanjing, Beijing-Shanghai, Xi'an-Chengdu, Shanghai-Wuhan and other routes will welcome more inter-provincial passengers on May 1.
