2023-04-13
The reporter learned from Guangzhou Railway Group that since the beginning of this year, the railway passenger flow has continued to operate at a high level, and the number of passengers sent before and after the Qingming Festival has shown a surge trend. At the same time, the number of freight trains has steadily increased, releasing a positive signal for the economy of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area. Smooth travel: Railway passenger transportation has continuously set a "high flow". As of now, Guangzhou Railway Group's passenger transportation volume this year has reached 140 million, recovering from 94.7% in 2019, with 767 million passengers sent after the end of the Spring Festival. After this year's Spring Festival travel, as the economy in the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area continues to recover and personnel flow accelerates, the willingness of citizens to travel remains strong, and the frequency of travel has greatly increased, showing a phenomenon of railway passenger flow not declining during the off-season. From April 1st to 3rd, 5.518 million passengers were sent, with a daily average of 1.839 million passengers, a year-on-year increase of 277.5%. The daily average number of passengers sent increased by 35% compared to the Spring Festival travel period, setting a new high for the daily average number of passengers sent by Guangzhou Railway Group since 2023. "Huang Yuchu, a staff member of the Passenger Transport Department of Guangzhou Railway Group, said that although the Qingming Festival only had one day off, passenger flow exceeded the peak value of the Spring Festival travel and reached a new high for this year. At the same time, the comprehensive resumption of cross-border trains from Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong this year has also brought about a growing passenger flow. From April 1st to 5th, a total of 305000 cross-border passengers were sent, with a daily average of 61000 passengers. The rapid flow of personnel between Guangdong and Hong Kong, as well as the increasing flow of cross-border business, tourism, and family visits, has greatly assisted the economic development of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area. It can be foreseen that the recovery and growth of railway passenger flow will have a positive impact on industries such as catering, accommodation, and transportation, while also promoting the development of logistics, manufacturing, and other industries. "Xie Yi, a professor at the Shenzhen Municipal Party School, believes that this year's railway passenger flow has recovered and rapidly increased, indicating that the signal of China's economic recovery is becoming stronger. Smooth flow of goods: Since pressing the "acceleration button" for regional economic development this year, railway freight has continued to maintain a high level of operation. On March 31st, the X9547 freight train, loaded with 43 containers, slowly departed from the Dalang Station of Guangzhou Railway Group and headed all the way towards the destination of Haikou. This is the 192789th vehicle loaded by Guangzhou Railway Group since March, and 10.139 million tons of goods were shipped that month. The daily average loading of 6219 vehicles was 12.1% year-on-year, setting a new historical high. The increasingly perfect railway transportation network has pressed the "acceleration key" for the high-speed development of railway freight in the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area. The rapid development of railway freight transportation has helped drive the economic development of the regions along the line, continuously improving the economic competitiveness of the Pearl River Delta, and providing strong transportation support for promoting the construction and development of the Greater Bay Area. The small household appliances, daily necessities, chemicals, electronic products and other products in the Greater Bay Area are highly favored by consumers and exported to various parts of the world, "said the relevant person in charge of the freight department of Guangzhou Railway Group. More and more overseas enterprises and people are turning their attention to Chinese goods, and the label" Made in China "is loved by many overseas places. Data shows that in 2022, the total import and export value of Guangdong's foreign trade reached 8.31 trillion yuan, an increase of 0.5% compared to 2021, accounting for 19.8% of China's total import and export value during the same period. The scale continues to steadily rank first in the country. Number of freight trains operating
