It was learned from the bus group that several bus lines will be adjusted from January 26th including changing the route of Bus 7 and opening two new routes Bus 312 (combined route of Bus19, B24, Bus 40), and shuttle Bus 4.
The first stop and the last stop of No. 7 will be changed from 403 and Sanmatouto Shixi Road to ErmaluRoad (No. 1 Hospital), with the routenumber unchanged. After adjustment, passengers from Sanmatou station along the Yangtze River Avenue to the Municipal Government Station can take Bus 8 to Jiefang Road, CBD or Bus 2 to Huanchengnan Road and Huanchengdong Road at the original station then transfer to Bus 7.
Bus19, B24 and Bus 40 are optimized and merged into one line, which runs from Wanda Square to Diannaocheng with route number 312. After the adjustment, Bus 312 will basically take the way of Bus 40 as the main route, and take account of the travel needs of the passengers of Huaxiang Business Center, Yucai Crossing, Xiandai City Square and the No.2Hospital. At the same time, it will collect the capacity of the original three routes and shorten the departure time from the original 15-30 minutes (50 minutes at noon shift) to 10-12 minutes to meet the travel needs of the citizens.
