HEFEI, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- As the unleashed pent-up travel demand has brought back a Spring Festival travel rush unseen for three years, China's transport sectors are making all-out efforts to ensure smooth and safe journeys amid optimized COVID-19 response.

The total number of passenger trips for the year's travel rush, or "Chunyun," is expected to reach 2.1 billion, almost twice as much as last year or 70.3 percent of the 2019 reading, according to the Ministry of Transport.

The maintenance team under the Hefei branch of China Railway Shanghai Group Co., Ltd has been busy performing maintenance tasks in non-service hours to make sure that safe and smooth train rides are available to passengers during the travel rush.
