Recently, the comprehensive renovation and upgrading project of Hefei Railway Station, an important railway hub in central China, is coming to an end. The old appearance has been replaced with a new one, and the new Hefei Station and surrounding supporting areas are eye-catching. Especially the VF series heavy-duty public transportation escalators provided by Walker Elevator have built a "golden passage" in front of the station square area, providing safe and convenient guarantees for passengers to travel.


Hefei Railway Station was founded in 1935 and currently sends nearly 40 million passengers per year. As a hub for the flow of people and logistics in Anhui Province, it is also an important window for Hefei's external image. At the same time, the station is of great significance for Hefei to build a national tourism standardization pilot city, enhance the influence of the "Great Lakes Famous City" tourism brand, build a world-class city cluster sub center in the Yangtze River Delta, and create a "Great Lakes Famous City, Innovation Highland" and other work.


The comprehensive renovation and upgrading project of Hefei Railway Station area has been launched since 2017, with a total renovation area of about 1.91 square kilometers. It mainly implements the landscape environment renovation and upgrading project of the area, municipal pipeline network renovation, road traffic facilities and slow traffic system renovation, pedestrian overpass and information engineering, etc., including the installation project of escalators at the passenger terminal and pedestrian overpass. After multiple rounds of rigorous on-site inspections and product comparisons, the Vox VF series public transportation escalator stood out and became the choice of the Hefei Railway Station Regional Comprehensive Management Office.


Over the years, Walker has provided various solutions for high traffic in cities. Based on the characteristics of passenger transportation in different places, Walker has launched multiple escalators to perfectly match the product with the environment and calmly respond to every transportation demand. In recent years, Walker has provided heavy-duty public transportation escalators for densely populated areas such as Lanzhou Railway Station, Qinhuangdao High speed Railway Station, and Yangzhou Chengqing Square, providing safe transportation for passengers and citizens.
