China's railway network is expected to handle 11.8 million passenger trips on Monday, the second day of the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, with 604 extra trains planned to be operated.
The traffic flow falls slightly compared with the previous day.
Most rail passengers are traveling to visit relatives and friends or take short-distance trips. Local railway authorities across the country have increased trains to popular destinations.
As powerful typhoon Bebinca made landfall in east China's Shanghai and Zhejiang Province on Monday morning, some passenger trains running on affected lines have been temporarily suspended.
China's highways are predicted to carry about 33 to 34 million vehicles on Monday, of which new energy vehicles account for nearly 60 percent of passenger cars.
In order to cope with the surging charging demand during the holiday travel rush, the highway service areas across the country have made full preparations in advance to ensure that vehicles can be charged in time and quickly.
China's civil aviation sector is expected to operate more than 13,000 flights. About 2,300 flights will be carried out on inbound and outbound air lines, handling approximately 220,000 passenger trips.
More than 1,600 flights in cities such as Shanghai, Hangzhou, Ningbo and Nanjing have been canceled due to typhoon Bebinca.
The Mid-Autumn Festival, celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month on the Chinese lunar calendar, falls on Sept. 17 this year. During the festival, family members come together from across China, share traditional mooncakes and light up lanterns to enjoy their family reunion.
