China's railway network is expected to handle 11.8 million passenger trips on Monday, the second day of the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, with 604 extra trains planned to be operated.
The traffic flow falls slightly compared with the previous day.
Most rail passengers are traveling to visit relatives and friends or take short-distance trips. Local railway authorities across the country have increased trains to popular destinations.
As powerful typhoon Bebinca made landfall in east China's Shanghai and Zhejiang Province on Monday morning, some passenger trains running on affected lines have been temporarily suspended.
China's highways are predicted to carry about 33 to 34 million vehicles on Monday, of which new energy vehicles account for nearly 60 percent of passenger cars.
In order to cope with the surging charging demand during the holiday travel rush, the highway service areas across the country have made full preparations in advance to ensure that vehicles can be charged in time and quickly.
China's civil aviation sector is expected to operate more than 13,000 flights. About 2,300 flights will be carried out on inbound and outbound air lines, handling approximately 220,000 passenger trips.
More than 1,600 flights in cities such as Shanghai, Hangzhou, Ningbo and Nanjing have been canceled due to typhoon Bebinca.
The Mid-Autumn Festival, celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month on the Chinese lunar calendar, falls on Sept. 17 this year. During the festival, family members come together from across China, share traditional mooncakes and light up lanterns to enjoy their family reunion.

The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) passed a non-binding resolution on Wednesday demanding an end to Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory within the next 12 months by an overwhelming margin.
The resolution was adopted with 124 votes in favor, 14 against and 43 abstentions, during the UNGA's 10th emergency special session considering Israeli actions in occupied East Jerusalem and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
The resolution demanding that Israel comply with all its legal obligations under international law, including advisory opinions by the International Court of Justice, was introduced by the State of Palestine on Tuesday and was co-sponsored by more than two dozen nations.
By the newly adopted resolution, the UNGA "demands that Israel brings to an end without delay its unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, which constitutes a wrongful act of a continuing character entailing its international responsibility and do so no later than 12 months from the adoption of the present resolution."
The UNGA also demands that Israel comply without delay with all its legal obligations under international law, including as stipulated by the International Court of Justice.
In remarks before the vote, Mohamed Issa Abushahab, the permanent representative of the United Arab Emirates to the United Nations, said the humanitarian tragedy in Gaza must be addressed through unimpeded access to those in need, a ceasefire deal and the full implementation of all related Security Council resolutions.
A credible peace process must be relaunched to work towards a two-State solution to diffuse this conflict, he said, expressing support for the State of Palestine's full statehood and UN membership. "The time has come to end the suffering," he noted.
Introducing the draft resolution on Tuesday, Riyad Mansour, the permanent observer of the State of Palestine to the United Nations, called for the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
He said the Palestinian people have been steadfast in the pursuit of their inalienable rights, just like all other citizens worldwide who seek self-determination.
"The Palestinians want to live, not survive -- they want to be safe in their homes, they want their children to go to school without fear. They want to be free in reality as they are in spirit," said Mansour.
