Shanghai Metro Expressly: Can Not Wear Roller Skates Into The Station

Stepping on skateboards and skating shoes into the subway station has been expressly prohibited.

Yesterday, the Shanghai metro operation company disclosed that the new version of the "code of passengers on rail pit" will be implemented from December 25th.

In addition to the ban on skateboards and skates, the new version of the code also restricts the public's attention to the possibility of folding bicycles on the subway.

It is expressly prescribed that pets are not allowed to carry pets. The Shanghai metro operation company said that according to the new situation encountered in the operation of rail network, the new edition of the code revised the code of 2002.

As early as September this year, the pportation management department carried out an investigation of the "code of passengers on rail pit" on the Internet and solicited public opinions.

The key points of the survey include whether to allow 7 problems in skating or wearing skateboards in rail pit.

The Shanghai metro operation company said that skateboards and skates were included in the ranks of rail users.

"Mainly considering stepping on skateboards and skating shoes is easy to bump into other passengers, and even accidentally fall down or knock others down, causing injuries."

Relevant personages said.

At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of operation, the new version of the code also stipulates that no pets can be brought into the station or buses.

Previously, the regulations on the administration of Shanghai's rail traffic had stipulated that pets such as cats and dogs should not be allowed in the orbit, but the 2002 edition of the code did not specify this.

Folding bicycles are recommended for packaging. For many Metro families, folding bicycles have become a very important means of pportation, but there is always controversy about whether folding bicycles can enter the subway.

According to media reports, Beijing subway also banned bicycles on the subway this year.

On this issue, the new edition of the code extends the old version of "the weight of articles carried by passengers should not exceed 20 kilograms, and the length, width, height and the volume should not exceed 1.8 meters, and the volume should not exceed 0.15 cubic meters".

But at the same time, it added "not to affect other passengers riding".

The Shanghai metro operation company explained that although some passengers carried items that were not in excess of the size and weight, they were prone to affect other passengers, such as folding bicycles. "Therefore, passengers are advised to pack such objects, especially rain and snow, before getting on the train."

In particular, additional safety tips such as screen doors are introduced to address the new problems arising from the current operation process and the impact of new installations such as screen doors. The new code also added some safety tips, and made clear that "the upper and lower trains should pay attention to the gap between platforms; the train door buzzer rings, the door and screen door warning lights are bright, passengers are not allowed to force up and down the train, and when the doors are opened or closed, they are not allowed to touch the contents of the doors".

At the same time, the new version of the code also added "reminder of the correct use of rail escalator, automatic fare collection machine, public pport card recharge ticket checker and related facilities and equipment".
