Information from Hanoi Railway One Member Co., Ltd. (Hanoi Metro), on April 30, the Cat Linh - Ha Dong urban railway line transported more than 33,500 passengers. Meanwhile, the Nhon - Hanoi Railway Station route welcomed more than 23,000 visitors.
The number of passengers traveling by urban railway on 1.5 continued to remain at the same level as the first day of the holiday.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Viet Hoa (Nam Tu Liem District, Hanoi) shared that on the morning of May 2, her whole family took the train from Cau Dien Station to S8 Station - Cau Giay to go to Thu Le Park to have fun.
Ms. Hoa thought that many people would return to their hometowns or travel during the long holiday, but there would be few customers taking the train, and unexpectedly there would be many. "Although there are many customers, there is no jostling" - Ms. Hoa said.
A representative of Hanoi Metro said that on April 30 and May 1, the two urban railway lines will operate according to the holiday schedule, with the opening time starting at 5:30 and closing time at 22:00; frequency of 10 minutes/trip.
From May 2, the train schedule will return to normal. The routes operate from 5:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily, with an extension of 10 minutes/trip. During peak hours, the travel time is shortened to 6 minutes/trip to reduce the number of passengers.
