Traffic instructions are clear and eye-catching
At 14: 00 on the 27th, the reporter set off from downtown Haikou and drove to the intersection of Changbin North Road and Binhai Avenue about half an hour later. Different from the past, cross-sea vehicles can’t drive directly from Binhai Avenue to Xinhai Port, but bypass the No.21 road in the north of the second phase of Hainan International Convention and Exhibition Center.
There is a lot of traffic on the 21 ST road, and cars line up in an orderly way and drive slowly forward. The drone "shouted" in the air to help maintain order. The traffic police and port operators stood in the traffic and knocked on the window one by one. After confirming that they had made an appointment to buy tickets, they would send an emergency evacuation pass for the owner to stick on the window. "There are traffic signs every 30 meters, which are very clear and eye-catching. We have been driving very smoothly and will not go the wrong way." Ms. Chen from Hubei said.

Volunteers serve warmly.
About 20 minutes later, the reporter drove out of Route 21 and turned to the entrance of Xinhai Port. At this time, along the road, several volunteers in red vests held mineral water and dry food in their arms and asked the passing car owners, "We have eight-treasure porridge, biscuits and hot water to make tea. They are all provided free of charge, and you can take them to the boat to eat. "
Wu Qiudun, with gray hair, stands out among the volunteers. At the age of 66, he has participated in the "three ports and one station" Spring Festival travel rush security service in Haikou for six consecutive years. "This year’s Spring Festival travel rush return peak came earlier than before, and volunteers have been on duty here since the third day of the New Year." Wu Qiudun found that the most frequently asked by tourists in the past was how to make an appointment to buy tickets on the mobile phone. He didn’t know much about the operation of smart phones. He asked his daughter to teach him several times. "Now I have mastered it, and I helped five tourists to make an appointment on the mobile phone this afternoon alone."

Traffic police help refuel.
Just as the vehicle filed into the port, Mr. Chen from Henan suddenly got off the bus and ran all the way to the traffic police. It turned out that the owner’s car would soon run out of gas, and he was worried that he could not drive to the ferry, so he quickly asked the traffic police for help. Zhou Xingyan, a policeman of Xiuying Brigade of Haikou Traffic Police Detachment, first asked the driver to drive to the side of the road, and then arranged for a colleague to ride a motorcycle to take the driver to the gas station to refuel with an oil drum, and then poured it into the car tank when he came back. Hearing that Mr. Chen was worried that he would have to queue up again and miss the boarding time, Zhou Xingyan said with relief, "I have written down your queue position, and I will try my best to get you back to the original team after refueling."
Port operations are orderly.
Before boarding the ship, many vehicles turned to the duty-free pick-up area to collect the duty-free goods they bought. The reporter saw in the delivery area that more than a dozen windows were lined up, and there was no waiting in line. After the tourists provide the relevant information, the staff will take the products off the shelves and hand them to the guests. The whole process will take no more than 2 minutes. "When we were sitting in the car, we heard the radio reminding us to prepare the ID card and the ticket in advance and ask the buyer to collect it himself." Ms. Wang, a tourist from Chongqing, said that because the prompt was very timely, everyone picked up the goods very smoothly and efficiently.
In the port, security inspection, inspection and boarding are orderly. In the dispatching room, the staff are busy making overall arrangements for the production organization, schedule formulation, capacity allocation and emergency evacuation of the four ports on both sides of the Taiwan Straits.
"This year, our whole family once again drove to Hainan for the Spring Festival holiday after eight years. Last time I came here, I bought tickets at the port site, and the waiting time was very long. This time, it is obvious that the efficiency of port transportation has improved. " Mr. Dai, a Shandong tourist from go on road trip to Hainan, said, "The holiday time is limited, and I only went to the cities and counties in the south of Hainan Island. We are going to come again next year and see the beautiful scenery of Hainan! "
