  1.54 billion yuan

  In addition to ancient buildings and transportation infrastructure, the project achievements have been applied to many other livelihood projects, such as the isolation and reinforcement projects of important buildings such as primary and secondary schools and hospitals, and the construction projects of high-rise isolation residential areas. There are more than 60 projects of various categories, with a total construction area of about 3.36 million square meters and direct economic benefits of 1.54 billion yuan.

  Key words of "people’s livelihood" in science and technology awards ③

  2021 is the 45th anniversary of the Tangshan earthquake. In the past half century, in order to cope with the challenges caused by the earthquake and ensure the safety of people’s lives and property, the scientific and industrial circles have made great efforts. Since 1990s, isolation has gradually become one of the important concepts in the field of disaster reduction and resistance.

  At the 2020 National Science and Technology Awards Conference held a few days ago, the project "Key Technology and Engineering Application of High Performance Isolation Building Series" won the second prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award. The project was jointly completed by Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture, Southeast University, China Institute of Building Science, Beijing Institute of Architectural Design and Research, China Institute of Building Standards Design and Research, Beijing Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. and Jiangsu Hongji New Energy Saving Technology Co., Ltd. The appraisal by the expert committee shows that the achievements of the project have reached the international advanced level, among which the design method of high-performance isolation buildings and high-performance isolation devices have reached the international leading level. The results of the project have been applied to many major projects.

  What is isolation, how to understand the "high performance" in the project, and which major livelihood projects have applied high performance isolation technology? The reporter of Science and Technology Daily contacted a number of relevant units and asked them to give professional answers to these questions.

  The core feature of seismic isolation is "being flexible and being rigid"

  "Isolation is like stepping on a building ‘ Roller skates ’ 。” At the exhibition of application technology achievements of disaster prevention, mitigation and relief held in July 2021, the staff from Zhen ‘an Technology, a manufacturer of seismic isolation, introduced the characteristics of seismic isolation technology to the reporter of Science and Technology Daily. "The traditional concept of building earthquake resistance is to play hardball, ‘ Make rigidity with rigidity ’ The main means is to increase the physical strength of the members, which will lead to stronger earthquake action of the superstructure. The core concept of seismic isolation technology is ‘ Take Roukegang ’ Isolation devices, such as rubber bearings and dampers, are installed between the foundation or substructure of the building and the superstructure to reduce the seismic energy input to the superstructure, which can reduce the seismic action to 1/4 to 1/8. "

  The physical model demonstrated in the field shows that when an earthquake occurs, the superstructure with isolation device only moves in parallel with a relatively small amplitude, while the building without isolation technology shakes much more violently. "This is the basic principle of isolation." The staff introduced.

  However, this simple model is not enough to present the complete connotation of isolation technology. In reality, the application of technology must deal with all kinds of complex needs and scenes, such as high-rise residential buildings, hospitals, subways and historical buildings, which all have different conditions and requirements for isolation technology. In the design and construction of isolated buildings, there have been four major problems in the world for a long time, such as lack of applicability of design theory, lack of systematicness of design technology, lack of efficiency of key devices and lack of standardization of quality control. Therefore, the project "Key Technology and Engineering Application of High Performance Isolation Building Series" came into being, aiming at solving a series of key problems about high performance isolation technology.

  There are both theoretical breakthroughs and practical applications

  In view of the four long-standing problems, the project has mainly realized four innovations, namely, the design theory of high-performance isolation structure, the multi-objective integrated design technology of isolation structure, a series of high-performance isolation devices with adjustable functions, and the quality control technology of isolation building construction, and edited a series of standards.

  "Our project lasted for more than 20 years and produced a lot of results, with rich content." In an exclusive interview with Science and Technology Daily, Guo Tong, the second winner of the award-winning project and a professor at the School of Civil Engineering of Southeast University, explained that the project has published 166 papers, won 30 invention patents and published 5 works, and the results have been applied to more than 60 important projects.

  "For example, we have developed a variety of high-performance isolation bearings, such as rubber bearings with ultra-low modulus and high damping, adjustable and low-frequency sensitive composite isolation bearings, and new tension-controllable isolation bearings. In addition to bearings, there are other devices, such as adjustable viscous dampers and large deformation flexible pipes, which are our achievements in device research and development. However, the project results are not only the device, but also the design theory, design technology and quality standards. " Guo Tong added.

  As the second completion unit of the award-winning project, Southeast University took the lead in completing a number of project achievements, covering the main aspects of the above four innovations. In addition to innovation in design and theory, the project has many achievements in engineering application and promotion, and many of these achievements have already landed and become a part of people’s livelihood projects in daily life.

  It has been widely used in people’s livelihood projects

  "Add the bottom" to the ancient building and "add the cover" to the subway … … Among the application achievements of the project "Key Technology and Engineering Application of High Performance Isolation Building Series", there are many such "ingenious pens".

  In 1933, at the initiative of Cai Yuanpei and others, the Humanities Museum of the National Central Museum was completed in Nanjing, which is today’s Nanjing Museum. With the help of seismic isolation technology, this 80-year-old national key cultural relics protection building has become more "young" — — With the advanced technologies such as integral lifting (3m) and seismic isolation and reinforcement, the seismic level of the building has been effectively improved, the appearance and features have not been damaged, and the internal space of the building has also been expanded, giving cultural protection units and visitors more margin. After the completion of the project, the Disaster Prevention Research Center of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development included this reinforcement of Nanjing Museum as a classic case and also selected it as the cover of the published series.

  In another famous historical and cultural city, Beijing, thousands of miles away, the achievements of isolation technology also show their talents. Compared with Nanjing, some natural and human conditions in Beijing are more complicated: being in an earthquake-prone area, earthquakes have been frequent since ancient times; It has the longest subway system in the world; There is a large population and the intensive land use of transportation hubs is tight. Seismic isolation technology plays a key role in the construction of high-performance buildings. In Beijing Metro Line 6 Kunyufu, Line 8 Park Yuefu and Line 16 Beian River Cover, the key technologies of complex high-rise isolation structures have been popularized and applied, with an application area of 890,000 square meters, which is the largest cover isolation building complex in the world at present.

  In addition to the above-mentioned subway superstructure isolation building, there is also a major infrastructure project in Beijing that adopts the project results. According to the data provided by China Institute of Building Standards Design and Research, the fifth completion unit of the project, the national industry standard of Flexible Pipeline for Building Isolation edited by this unit has been applied to the high-performance isolation device of Beijing Daxing Airport. Daxing Airport, located on the southern extension line of Beijing’s central axis, is the largest single isolation building in the world at present. A total of 1,152 sets of isolation devices are used in the terminal building, and the rubber isolation bearings used are the highest in China, both in volume and tonnage of a single bearing.

  A major feature of Daxing Airport is that different means of transportation can transfer at the same station, and the negative second floor of the terminal is used for high-speed rail, subway and intercity trains. The high-speed entry and exit of trains will produce strong vibration and large wind pressure, which is also one of the difficulties that isolation technology in China has overcome.

  Guo Tong said that in addition to ancient buildings and transportation infrastructure, the results of the project are also applied to many other livelihood projects, such as the isolation and reinforcement projects of important buildings such as primary and secondary schools and hospitals, and the construction projects of high-rise isolation residential areas, such as the Tianyang Innovation City project in Yanjiao, Hebei Province, with a total area of about 1.14 million square meters, and the Xichang Territory project in Sichuan Province, which is located near the fault in the 9-degree zone (the earthquake amplification factor is 1.5). There are more than 60 projects of various categories, with a total construction area of about 3.36 million square meters and direct economic benefits of 1.54 billion yuan.

  According to the data of Sichuan Seismological Bureau, as early as 2015, the total number of buildings applying isolation technology in China has exceeded 6,000, accounting for half of the world, more than 5,000 in Japan, ranking first in the world. The staff of Zhen ‘an Science and Technology said that at present, there are more than 10,000 buildings applying isolation technology in China.

  Guo Tong commented that as an efficient means of structural earthquake prevention, isolation technology has broad application prospects in the future. Technicians are still developing various isolation devices with excellent performance and expanding their application scope, contributing to improving the city’s disaster prevention capability.

Go to a windy place on foot. This is the Himalayas.

Nepal is a paradise for hikers to make pilgrimages. There are nearly 100 hiking routes here, among which Poonhill (Bryan) Small Ring Road, Anna Poorna Base Camp Line (ABC) and Himalayan Base Camp (EBC) are more mature and popular.

In the ABC line, which is the most popular among Chinese people, it is no exaggeration to say that this hiking trip, which takes nearly 1-2 weeks, is not to touch heaven, but to really be in the "paradise of snow peaks": Anna Poorna, Manaslu, Dharagiri and Nepali Shenshan Fishtail, among the top ten peaks in the world over 8000m meters, accompany you day and night, and the landscape changes brought by the vertical height difference make the four seasons scenery panoramic: forest, meadow, pastoral and Nepali.

Walking around the mountains in Nepal may be the distance in the world, before the front. Meng, a traveler on Tripadvisor, shared his unique experience of ABC trekking in Nepal during the Spring Festival. Because his heart is towards the mountains, he never stops exploring.

"After a long journey of 12 days, I finally arrived at Anna Poorna’s base camp in the Himalayas. We walk for 6-11 hours every day, starting from the tropical forest, passing through the bushes and reaching the foot of Anna Poorna Glacier.

It can be seen that ABC is a relatively mature route during hiking. The guide will adjust the specific itinerary according to everyone’s situation and weather conditions on that day. If someone in the team can’t keep up, they will stop to have a rest or make other adjustments. The scenery along the route is very good. When we reached the summit, we saw the sunset and starry sky, and the sunrise the next morning, all of which were very shocking and beautiful. Once again, we lamented that we were really small in front of nature.

Because it was during the Spring Festival, the guides also celebrated New Year’s Eve with us, singing and dancing, which was very interesting. At the beginning of the new year, it is even more meaningful to complete an extreme challenge. By the way, on the way back, there are hot springs by the river flowing down from the glacier! "

An outbreak of H5N2 avian influenza occurred in a chicken farm in Baoding, Hebei Province, and 120,000 chickens were culled.

On December 17th, 4,000 chickens died abnormally in Hufeng Chicken Farm, Zhuzhuang Village, Nanshi District, Baoding. On the 21st, it was confirmed by the National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory that the epidemic was highly pathogenic avian influenza of H5N2 subtype.

The reporter learned from the office of the major animal epidemic command in the epidemic area that the epidemic situation has been effectively controlled. Qi Jicheng, director of Baoding Animal Disease Prevention and Control Center, said that the bird flu will not spread among people. It can be inactivated in 10 minutes at 70℃ and killed instantly at 100℃.

Visit Hufeng Chicken Farm in Zhuzhuang Village to become an epidemic spot.

On December 21, the reporter went to Zhuzhuang Village, Nanshi District, Baoding, and found that there were two police cars at the main entrance of the village to form a checkpoint. Two policemen conducted an inventory of the vehicles entering the village. More than 10 meters away from the south side of the checkpoint, several epidemic prevention personnel wearing white coats are disinfecting the passing vehicles.

Subsequently, the reporter went south along Zhu Zhuang Road, and found police cars, sprinklers and vehicles marked with the words of fire control and health supervision everywhere on both sides of the road. Workers wearing epidemic prevention clothing and disinfection equipment can be seen everywhere.

After walking more than 300 meters, the reporter found that there were more than 100 people gathered on the roadside and were collecting various epidemic prevention tools. There is a safety warning line in front of the roadside Hufeng Chicken Farm, and the ground is covered with white ash. An epidemic prevention worker stood in front of the door with a medicine bucket, and a sign marked "epidemic point" was set up next to it.

The response to the epidemic has been effectively controlled.

More than 100 meters away from the north side of the chicken farm, the "Major Animal Epidemic Command Office" was set up, and the "Decision on Blocking the Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Epidemic Area in Our District" (hereinafter referred to as the "Decision") was posted in front of the door, which was stamped with the official seal of the Nanshi District Government. According to the "Decision", since 0: 00 on December 19, the blockade will be implemented 3 kilometers around Hufeng Chicken Farm in Nanshi District, Baoding City, Zhuzhuang Village, Jiaozhuang Township, and the blockade will be lifted at 0: 00 on January 9, 2014. During the blockade period, temporary highway disinfection inspection stations shall be set up at the main traffic intersections entering the epidemic area according to law, so as to prohibit poultry and their products from flowing out of the epidemic area and poultry from non-epidemic areas from entering the epidemic area. According to the need to extinguish the epidemic situation, disinfection and other restrictive measures shall be taken for personnel, means of transport and related articles entering and leaving the blockade area, and poultry and their products in Zhu Zhuang, Liansan and Ruanzhuang villages within 3 kilometers of the epidemic area and surrounding areas shall be culled and destroyed, emergency immunization and isolation shall be carried out for susceptible animals within 5 kilometers of the epidemic area, and trading activities of related animals and their products shall be stopped. At the same time, the implementation of disinfection and other mandatory epidemic control and eradication measures.

At 21: 47 on December 21, the Information Office of the Ministry of Agriculture announced the epidemic situation: an epidemic situation of highly pathogenic avian influenza in poultry occurred in Nanshi District of Baoding City. At present, the epidemic has been effectively controlled.

Deal with thousands of people and cull more than 120 thousand chickens.

On the 22nd, in the office of the "Major Animal Epidemic Command", Zhang Wenguang, director of the Agriculture Bureau of Nanshi District, told the reporter that at present, the poultry in the epidemic area have been culled and the eggs have been treated harmlessly. Now they are carrying out harmless treatment of feces, which is expected to be completed in 3 to 4 days. In addition, the main work at present is disinfection.

Zhang Wenguang introduced that on the 17th, the relevant person in charge of Hufeng Chicken Farm in Zhuzhuang Village in the jurisdiction found that 4,000 chickens died abnormally and immediately reported it. Subsequently, the provincial and municipal animal disease prevention and control centers diagnosed it as a suspected bird flu epidemic. On the 21st, the National Avian Influenza Reference Laboratory confirmed that the epidemic was a highly pathogenic H5N2 subtype avian influenza epidemic.

During this period, Nanshi District closed the chicken farm and isolated 11 people in the chicken farm. At about 21 o’clock on the 19th, more than 30 technicians from provinces and cities, more than 1,000 militia reserve, public security officers, fire-fighting armed police and professional technicians took turns to go into battle, culling and harmless treating 125,700 chickens, and destroying the eggs in stock in chicken farms. The animal husbandry departments at the municipal and district levels are tracking and tracing the eggs sold.

At present, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Nanshi District conducts daily temperature tests on 11 people isolated in the epidemic area, and no abnormal conditions have been found.

survey

An epidemiological investigation of the source of infection is under way.

According to Zhang Wenguang, Hufeng Chicken Farm, which was built in 1992, is an individual enterprise. There are more than 120,000 chickens, most of which are laying hens, and there are no carnivorous chickens. There has never been a similar large-scale epidemic in this chicken farm. More than 4,000 chickens that died were young chickens that had not laid eggs, which were purchased from other places by the chicken farm on November 27th. At present, relevant departments are conducting an epidemiological investigation on the source of infection.

Zhang Wenguang said that only Hufeng Chicken Farm is a large-scale farm, 3 kilometers around the epidemic area and 5 kilometers around the epidemic area, and most of the rest are free-range. At present, all live birds including 7 villages have been culled, and all susceptible substances, products and pollutants have been treated harmlessly.

The reporter learned that Nanshi District has stopped the live poultry trading in its jurisdiction.

market

Citizens can buy meat and poultry food with confidence according to the "quarantine certificate"

On December 22nd, in the science and technology market of Baoding Agricultural University, the reporter visited three shops that mainly deal in raw poultry food such as chicken, duck and goose, and found that the three shops were well supplied. Several store officials said that the price and sales volume were not affected by bird flu.

In Baofu Market, a merchant selling eggs told reporters that the price of eggs has remained around 4.3 yuan at present, and there has been no great fluctuation due to bird flu. A stall owner selling raw poultry food directly presented a Certificate of Animal Quarantine to the reporter, saying that the food can definitely guarantee safety.

On the 22nd, the staff of the Animal Health Supervision Institute of Baoding Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Bureau told the reporter that the regular stalls and shops selling meat and poultry will hold the Quarantine Certificate of Animal Products (hereinafter referred to as the Certificate), and citizens can buy meat and poultry food with confidence as long as they see this certificate. At the same time, the staff reminded that this "certificate" will be placed in a more eye-catching place in booths and shops, and they will strengthen inspections to ensure public safety.

Later, the reporter learned from the relevant responsible population of Baofu Market Office that the sales volume of chicken and eggs in Baofu market has only slightly decreased and the price has not changed.

Expert virus will not spread from person to person.

Qi Jicheng, director of Baoding Animal Disease Prevention and Control Center, introduced that at present, Baoding has established a four-level forecasting system for cities, counties and villages, requiring all departments to implement a 24-hour daily reporting system, and has not received any abnormal reports. At the same time, the areas adjacent to epidemic areas, waterfowl areas such as Baiyangdian Lake, four major reservoirs, large farms and other areas were taken as key monitoring areas, and samples were collected for pathogen detection. Up to now, the test results are negative and there is no abnormality. In addition, strengthen the immunization of poultry farms in the city, increase the frequency of immunization, and ensure that poultry immune antibodies reach a higher standard.

Qi Jicheng said that according to the test results, there is no epidemic in the market at present, and residents can rest assured to consume. Even if there is an epidemic, according to the characteristics of H5N2 virus, it will not spread among people. At the same time, the virus can be inactivated in 10 minutes at 70℃ and killed instantly at 100℃.

????Do I need to register for business if I sell my own agricultural and sideline products on the e-commerce platform?

????Who will bear the risks and responsibilities in commodity transportation?

????How to solve the problem of unfair trading behavior of operators in the e-commerce platform?

????How to solve the problem that it is difficult for consumers to report complaints and obtain evidence?

????……

????All these questions can be answered in the second draft of the draft e-commerce law submitted to the 30th session of the 12th the National People’s Congress Standing Committee (NPCSC) for deliberation today.

??? Exemption from further relaxation of industrial and commercial registration scope

????Paragraph 1 of Article 12 of the first draft stipulates that e-commerce operators shall handle industrial and commercial registration according to law. However, there is no need to obtain permission in accordance with the law to provide labor services with personal skills, cottage industry, self-production and marketing of agricultural products, and there is no need for industrial and commercial registration in accordance with laws and regulations. The specific measures shall be formulated by the State Council.

????In this regard, there are two opinions: one opinion is that the scope of exemption from industrial and commercial registration is too narrow, which is not conducive to the development of e-commerce. Another view is that the draft is generally consistent with the provisions of the measures for investigating unlicensed business recently promulgated and implemented in the State Council. At present, industrial and commercial registration and tax registration have been merged, and one photo and one yard are implemented. Industrial and commercial registration is the basis of tax collection and management, and industrial and commercial registration should be unified online and offline.

????After research, the Law Committee suggested that the above provisions be amended as follows: E-commerce operators should handle industrial and commercial registration according to law. However, sales of self-produced agricultural and sideline products, sales of household handicraft products, personal use of their own skills to engage in convenient labor services activities that do not require permission according to law, and industrial and commercial registration is not required according to laws and administrative regulations.

??? E-commerce operators shall not fabricate user evaluations.

????Some members of the Standing Committee, local governments, departments and the public suggested further strengthening the obligations of e-commerce operators, especially platform operators, and strengthening the protection of consumers’ rights and interests.

????After research, the Law Committee proposes to add the following provisions:

????E-commerce operators shall not infringe consumers’ right to know by means of false propaganda, fictitious transactions, fabricated user evaluations, etc.

????E-commerce operators shall deliver goods or services to consumers in the way and within the time limit promised or agreed with consumers, and bear the risks and responsibilities in the transportation of goods. However, unless the consumer and the e-commerce operator agree to choose another express logistics service provider.

????E-commerce operators shall clearly indicate the methods and procedures for users to cancel, and shall not set unreasonable conditions for users to cancel.

????E-commerce platform operators shall bear the responsibilities of commodity sellers or service providers according to law for commodity transactions or service transactions marked as self-operated businesses.

????E-commerce platform operators should display search results to consumers in various ways according to the price, sales volume and credit level of goods or services; For the goods or services ranked by bidding, "advertising" shall be clearly marked.

??? Platform operators shall not charge unreasonable fees.

????Some members of the Standing Committee, enterprises, experts and the public suggested that the relevant provisions of the draft should be improved in view of the unreasonable service agreements and trading rules used by e-commerce platforms to implement unfair trading behaviors against operators in the platform.

????After study, the Law Committee recommends the following amendments:

????In article 23 of the first draft, the provision that operators of e-commerce platforms should publicly solicit opinions when modifying the platform service agreement and publicize the modified contents in advance is added.

????Item 5 of Article 55 of the first draft is amended as follows: Operators of e-commerce platforms shall not unreasonably restrict or attach unreasonable trading conditions to the transactions and transaction prices of operators within the platform by means of service agreements and trading rules, or charge unreasonable fees to operators within the platform.

??? Strengthen the intellectual property protection responsibility of platform operators

????Article 53 of the first draft stipulates that if the operators in the e-commerce platform "know" that they infringe intellectual property rights, they shall take necessary measures such as deletion according to law.

????Some members of the Standing Committee, departments, enterprises and experts suggested further strengthening the intellectual property protection responsibility of platform operators.

????After research, the Law Committee suggested that the above provisions should be amended as follows: if the operators of e-commerce platforms know or should know that the operators in the platforms infringe intellectual property rights, they should take necessary measures such as deleting, shielding, disconnecting links, terminating transactions and services; If necessary measures are not taken, they shall be jointly and severally liable with the infringer. At the same time, in Article 54 of the first draft, it is added that if the operator of the e-commerce platform fails to take necessary measures in time after receiving the notice of infringement of intellectual property rights by the operators in the platform, it shall be jointly and severally liable for the expanded damage and the operators in the platform.

??? Operators shall promptly accept and handle complaints.

????Some members of the Standing Committee, local authorities, experts, and the public suggested that it is difficult for consumers to report complaints and obtain evidence in practice, and further improve the norms for handling disputes in e-commerce.

????After research, the Law Committee suggested that "e-commerce dispute settlement" should be a separate chapter, and the following provisions should be added:

????E-commerce operators should establish a convenient and effective complaint and reporting mechanism, disclose information such as complaint and reporting methods, and promptly accept and handle complaints and reports.

????In e-commerce dispute handling, e-commerce operators should provide original contracts and transaction records. If the people’s court, the arbitration institution or the relevant authorities are unable to ascertain the facts because the e-commerce operators have lost, forged, tampered with, destroyed, concealed or refused to provide the above information, the e-commerce operators shall bear corresponding legal responsibilities.

More than 280 million person-times, 17 million person-times and 16,480 classes … Multiple sets of data witnessed the travel fever during the May 1 holiday.

CCTV News:May 2nd is the second day of the "May 1st" holiday. Compared with May 1st, the overall traffic volume of national traffic trips is expected to decrease, but it still maintains a high level of operation, and the transportation department continues to provide travel service guarantee.

The reporter learned from China State Railway Group Co.,Ltd. that on May 2, the national railway is expected to send 17 million passengers and arrange to open 1094 additional passenger trains. Railway departments around the country have strengthened passenger service, optimized the streamline of entry and exit stations, and increased security inspection and verification channels. As an important hub of the Yangtze River Delta Railway, Nanjing South Railway Station accounts for about one-fifth of the daily passenger traffic. In view of the characteristics of many transfer passengers, the station has taken measures such as adding transfer gates, sending service personnel and volunteers to guide passengers to get on and off quickly and improve passenger traffic efficiency.

On the highway side, the expressway network traffic is expected to continue to maintain a high level on May 2. The traffic volume of the highway network around most popular scenic spots and large and medium-sized cities in China will be relatively large during peak hours.

In terms of civil aviation, the national civil aviation is expected to fly 16,480 flights on May 2. Affected by rainfall and strong convective weather, some airports in the south may experience flight delays. The airport actively makes plans and assists the airline company in ensuring passenger service.

On the first day of the "May 1" holiday, the cross-regional flow of people in the whole society exceeded 280 million.

Pay attention to holiday travel. On the first day of the May 1 holiday, the cross-regional turnover of the whole society exceeded 280 million, an increase of 15.9% over the first day of the May 1 holiday in 2019. Among them, the railway passenger traffic is expected to be 20.4 million passengers, the cross-regional personnel flow on highways is expected to exceed 257 million passengers, the waterway passenger traffic is expected to be 900,000 passengers, and the civil aviation passenger traffic is expected to exceed 2.11 million passengers. In order to facilitate passengers’ convenient travel, the railway department has increased security inspection and verification channels, increased guidance in key places, and strengthened coordination with public transportation, subway, taxis and other modes of transportation to get through the "last mile" of passengers’ travel.    

Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security: It is expected that the traffic flow of some out-of-town roads will run at a high level today

May 2nd is the second day of the "May 1st" holiday. It is expected that the traffic flow of some roads out of the city will still run at a high level, and the number of vehicles leading to scenic spots will continue to increase. According to the forecast of the Central Meteorological Observatory, there will be rain in parts of Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan and other places on May 2, and a new round of precipitation will occur in the southern region the day after tomorrow. The Traffic Management Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security reminds drivers and passengers to pay attention to driving safety.

Fujian: Coastal water passenger transport ushered in the peak of passenger flow.

Water transport. On May 1, Fujian coastal water passenger transport ushered in the peak of passenger flow, sending nearly 200,000 passengers. Among them, the passenger flow of routes such as Meizhou Island Ferry and Xiamen Drum Ferry has increased significantly. Meizhou Island Ferry sent nearly 40,000 passengers, nearly 8 times the daily number; The ferry from Xiamen to Gulangyu sent nearly 50,000 passengers.

In order to cope with the increase in passenger flow, during the holiday period, Fujian Maritime Department implemented the "one line, one policy" guarantee scheme for passenger ferry routes to ensure the seaworthiness of ships and the suitability of routes. In view of the recent strong convective weather, the local authorities have also strengthened early warning and pre-control measures to ensure the smooth navigation of ferries.

Ice and snow, national tide, art, sports … The consumption of cultural tourism is strong and rising, full of vitality and popularity.

CCTV News:During the Spring Festival this year, the tourism market in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province continued to be hot, and the number of tourists in major scenic spots reached a record high. According to the data provided by Harbin Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Film and Tourism, from February 10 to 14, the city received a total of 6.298 million tourists, an increase of 82.9%.
