How to avoid rush hour
Delay your visits to the Expo site until after 10am to avoid rush hour traffic.
Enter the site from the five entrances in Pudong rather than the three in Puxi. This is because about 75 percent of the ticket machines are located on the Pudong side.
Organizers will inform visitors which entrances have fewest people by sending short messages and displaying the information on large screens at the entrances to the site.
Travel inside the park
There are bus stops every 250 meters within the 5.28-square-kilometer Expo site with frequent services. A total of 120 buses will roll by every three minutes to take about 220,000 visitors between Pudong and Puxi Expo sections.
Paid bus
Besides free shuttle services, visitors can also pay to tour the site on golf cart-like vehicles with a capacity of eight people. They will run mainly on the elevated pedestrian roads and will carry around 10,000 visitors a day.
Metro Line 13 with three stations provides transport within the site and operates every six minutes during non-peak and every three minutes during peak hours. Visitors can travel for free on presentation of the Expo ticket.
Ferry
Twenty-two ferry boats and 13 tour ships will take visitors across the river. The boats will run about 600 times to take 240,000 visitors each day.
Reminder
General
May 1, 2 and 3 are so-called "designated days." You need to have a "designated ticket" to visit. Regular ticket holders can enjoy the Expo after May 3.
Free guide maps are available at each entrance.
Reservation tickets for the China Pavilion are available at each entrance, as well.
Wear comfortable walking shoes - be prepared for a day of walking, as seating around the site is sparse.
Bring an umbrella (collapsible) in the event of rain.
