Capital's subways and buses strain to serve its fast-growing population, Zheng Jinran reports.
Beijing resident Shi Chao leaves home before 7 am and waits for the bus to take him to the subway station.
He then transfers from Line 1 to Line 10, passing 22 stations. The trip takes at least 50 minutes in a packed carriage where he can hardly move.
