700 million passengers in Yangtze River Delta

The reporter learned from China Railway Shanghai Bureau Group Co., Ltd. that as of December 13, the annual number of passengers sent by Yangtze River Delta railway exceeded 700 million for the first time (including 535 million passengers sent by EMU trains), which is expected to reach 735 million throughout the year. With the continuous improvement of the scale and quality of the road network layout, the transportation organization of high-speed rail transit and the intelligent and convenient "unblocked project", passengers can travel better by train. The Yangtze River Delta of

is one of the regions with the most active economic development, the highest degree of openness and the strongest ability of innovation in China. Its demand for developed and perfect rail transit never stops. It is an urgent task for the development of the times to build the Yangtze River Delta on the track and improve the connectivity of regional infrastructure. At the beginning of the founding of new China in 1949, there were only seven single track railways in the Yangtze River Delta, with a total length of only 1400 kilometers and an average speed of 30 kilometers per hour. After the reform and opening-up, East China launched a railway construction war of "taking East China from China" and "taking East China again". A number of Railways including Beijing Kowloon, Xuanhang, Hejiu and Anhui Jiangxi were successively built and opened. The Yangtze River Delta railway gradually lifted the "bottleneck" of economic development, and the regional transportation capacity was effectively improved.

has entered the new century, Wuhu Yangtze River Bridge has been completed and opened to traffic, modern stations such as Shanghai South, Nanjing and Hangzhou have been completed, the electrification transformation of Zhejiang Jiangxi and Shanghai Hangzhou sections of Beijing Shanghai line and Shanghai Kunming line has been successfully completed and put into operation, and the construction of Yangtze River Delta railway network has been further accelerated. In particular, from 1997 to 2007, China's railways increased speed in six large areas, raising the maximum speed of existing trains from 120 km / h to 200 km / h, achieving a significant historic leap.

by the end of this year, the donghuai section of Xuyan railway and Lianzhen railway will be put into operation. The Yangtze River Delta railway will have 22 high-speed railways, and the EMU will cover 40 prefecture level cities in Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, three provinces, and the Yangtze River Delta will become one of the most developed and perfect regions in China's high-speed rail network. By the end of 2020, the operating mileage of the Yangtze River Delta railway is expected to reach 13000 kilometers, including more than 5300 kilometers of high-speed rail. The high-quality rapid rail transit network, which integrates high-speed railway, general speed railway, intercity railway and city railway, can basically meet the needs of regional social and economic development. The annual passenger volume of the railway in the Yangtze River Delta is a new high. In recent years, the Yangtze River Delta railway has actively explored the intelligent passenger transport service mode of "dual network integration" of high-speed rail network and Internet, applied advanced technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence, mobile Internet, face recognition and so on to passenger transport services, and made passenger travel more comfortable and calm through the "heart wandering" action of service means. As an important way to improve the intelligent level of passenger transport,

e-ticket is closely related to passenger travel experience. In order to expand the application of e-ticket, the Yangtze River Delta railway scientifically and orderly promotes the implementation of e-ticket application. As of December 1, 160 EMU stops of the Yangtze River Delta railway have realized full coverage of e-ticket application, and the way of "online ordering and offline card swiping" makes the arrival time less and the travel more smooth.

in terms of implementing the brand strategy of Fuxing, Yangtze River Delta railway took the lead in establishing relevant service standards in the national railway, formulated the operation plans of different Fuxing EMUs, such as 350km, 250km and 160km / h power concentration, and continuously expanded the number of Fuxing and its reach. In the "12.30" new map to be implemented, the Yangtze River Delta operates 288 Fuxing trains every day, an increase of 78 on a year-on-year basis, starting and ending in cities covering 21 provincial capitals and most cities in the Yangtze River Delta.
