Central China's Henan Province reported the steepest decline, with road passenger trips diving 61.3 percent from a year ago. Beijing saw its road passenger trips rise 6.6 percent year on year. From January to April, the country's water passenger volume shrank 40.2 percent from one year earlier to 30.49 million trips, data showed.
