Transportation sector sees Qingming Festival rebound
Font:〖L M S

Changzhou’s transportation sector witnessed a rebound during the three-day Tomb Sweeping Day holiday due to effective epidemic prevention and control measures across the country and the growing number of people receiving vaccinations.

Tomb Sweeping Day, also known as Qingming Festival, fell on April 4 this year. Traditionally, it is the time when Chinese people commemorate the dead. It was also the first national holiday after Spring Festival, when people had been encouraged to stay put due to COVID-19 epidemic containment measures.

A total of 94,544 passenger trips were made by road from April 3 to 5, an increase of 169.6 percent over the same period last year, according to the Bureau of Transport.

Among those trips, 82,278 were made by long-distance buses departed from Changzhou, Jintan or Liyang, while 12,266 trips were made by tailored bus services.

On April 2, the day before the holiday, 41,000 trips were made by road, a new daily peak for road travel this year.

Since March 16, people have been able to travel to low-risk areas by showing their green health code, with no nucleic acid test results required. Demand for travel services has grown due to a combination of the easing of strict epidemic control measures and a strong desire among the public to enjoy the spring.
