Better travel experiences expected for festival rush
This year, nearly 3 billion trips are expected during the Spring Festival travel rush between Feb 1 and March 12 as hundreds of millions of Chinese return to their hometowns or travel around the country.
With the upgrade of the transport networks and new technologies, passengers will be provided with better services during the rush.
Bullet trains to better serve passengers
Some of the newly opened high-speed train routes, including the Lanzhou-Chongqing line and Xi'an-Chengdu line, will reduce pressure on the transportation system and take passengers to their destinations in a faster and more convenient way.
Also, China's new-generation bullet trains Fuxing (or rejuvenation) will run on more lines during the travel rush. The new trains, which are able to run at more than 300 km/h, were independently developed by China.
