11月28日地方選舉投票日將至,交通部今天(12日)說明,返鄉人潮預計自27日下午陸續湧現,29日則迎來回程高峰,由於選舉返鄉具有時間集中、方向明確特性,熱門車次及航班需求較為集中。交通部長陳世凱表示,已要求各運輸單位提前整備,透過「運具聯防」及機動調整班次,讓選民返鄉有更多選擇。
交通部說明,本島交通方面,高鐵疏運期間規劃718班次,包含40班加班車;台鐵同步加開70班次,涵蓋西部、東部及南迴線,國道客運每天也可疏運約15.5萬人次。
根據交通部統計,目前台鐵及國道客運仍有座位餘裕,往返新竹、台中、宜蘭及東部地區的旅客,可依行程選擇不同運具,避開熱門車次與尖峰候車時間。
離島方面,航空經2波加班調整後,已規劃978架次、近7萬個座位。民航局將持續掌握各航線訂位及候補需求,並協調航空公司依運能及機組員調度情形,適時加開班機。海運方面,基隆往馬祖、高雄往馬公等航線尚有空位,澎湖輪也規劃增加航次,提供離島民眾更多返鄉選擇。
交通部說明,面對選舉期間集中的旅運需求,交通部將持續掌握訂位、場站人潮及實際運量,視需求機動調整班次,並加強跨運具協調,也提醒民眾提早查詢交通資訊、彈性安排出發時間,善用不同運具,讓返鄉投票與回程交通更加順暢。
