According to Li Xiaopeng, Minister of Transport, the "Planning Outline" clarifies three main tasks and detailed and practical aspects for the development of my country's transportation industry. development Goals.

　　"In terms of tasks, the first is to optimize the transportation layout, build 700,000 kilometers of transportation network lines, build the main skeleton of 6 axes, 7 corridors, and 8 channels, build 100 comprehensive transportation hub cities, and improve the global transportation network; second, promote The integrated development of various transportation methods, promote the coordinated development of transportation between various regions, and promote the integrated development of transportation and multiple industries." Li Xiaopeng said, the third is to promote the safe, smart and green development of transportation and improve the governance of transportation. Level.

　　In terms of goals, the "Planning Outline" proposes that by 2035, my country will basically build a modern and high-quality national comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network that is convenient, smooth, economical, efficient, green, intensive, intelligent, advanced, safe and reliable, and realizes international and domestic interconnection, and major cities across the country. Three-dimensional accessibility and effective coverage of county-level nodes will create a "national 123 travel traffic circle" and a "global 123 fast cargo circulation circle".

　　"'National 123 travel traffic circle' refers to the one-hour commute in metropolitan areas, two-hour access to urban agglomerations, and three-hour coverage of major cities across the country;'Global 123 Express Cargo Circle' refers to domestic delivery within one day to neighboring countries Delivered in two days and three days in major cities around the world.” Li Xiaopeng pointed out that the "Planning Outline" also proposes that by the middle of this century, a modern, high-quality national comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network will be fully established, so as to achieve "people enjoy travel and goods flow.

"6 axles, 7 corridors, 8 channels" prop up the main traffic skeleton

　　As a road map for the medium and long-term development of my country's transportation industry, what exactly is this huge comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network drawn by the "Planning Outline"?

　　Li Xiaopeng said that the national comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network will be based on railways and roads, and will also give full play to the comparative advantages of civil aviation and water transportation.

It is estimated that the scale of construction by 2035 will be about 700,000 kilometers, including about 200,000 kilometers of railways, about 460,000 kilometers of highways, about 25,000 kilometers of high-grade waterways, 27 major coastal ports, and 36 major inland river ports. There are about 400 transportation airports and about 80 postal express hubs.

　　"By then, the main skeleton of my country's comprehensive transportation network will be composed of '6 axes, 7 corridors, and 8 channels'." Li Xiaopeng introduced that my country has divided the key areas according to factors such as national regional development strategies and traffic demand in key areas. Three types.

The first type is the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and the Chengdu-Chongqing area twin-city economic circle, which is called 4 "poles".

In addition to these 4 "poles", there are 8 "groups" and 9 "groups".

Six comprehensive and three-dimensional main axes should be used to connect these four "poles" to form six axes.

In addition, there are 7 corridors between "Pole" and "Group" and "Group", and there are 8 channels between "Group" and "Group", "Group" and "Group". This is the "6-axis, "7 corridors, 8 channels" is the main framework of the future national comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network.

　　In addition, it is estimated that by 2035, in addition to the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and Chengdu-Chongqing double-city economic circle, my country will build about 20 international hubs. Cities and about 80 nationwide hub cities constitute about 100 comprehensive three-dimensional transportation hubs.

What are the new changes in expressways, railways, civil aviation and postal services in 2035

　　A safe and convenient travel environment is what the people expect from the transportation industry.

According to the "Planning Outline", how convenient is my country's comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network in the future, and what new changes will there be to the people's travel and parcel delivery?

　　According to Wang Zhiqing, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Transport, the future national highway network scale is planned to be about 160,000 kilometers, and the ordinary national highway network will be about 300,000 kilometers.

After completion, the national expressway will connect all administrative centers above the prefecture level and cities and counties with urban populations of more than 100,000.

"Except for some remote areas, the county-level administrative centers nationwide have basically achieved 15 minutes on the national highway, 30 minutes on the expressway, and 60 minutes on the railway." Wang Zhiqing said.

　　In addition, the "Planning Outline" also pointed out that by 2035, the total scale of my country's railway network will reach 200,000 kilometers, of which high-speed railways will reach about 70,000 kilometers, and ordinary-speed railways will reach about 130,000 kilometers.

Liu Zhenfang, director of the National Railway Administration, said that the railway will better play its role as the backbone of the comprehensive transportation system to meet the needs of the people.

　　In terms of civil aviation, it is estimated that by 2035, the number of transportation airports in my country will reach about 400, focusing on the construction of four world-class airport clusters: Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and Chengdu-Chongqing. Construction of four international air cargo hubs in Hefei and Ezhou, with a layout of about 40 regional air hubs.

　　"Post is mainly a service industry that relies on transportation to expand space. Therefore, the more developed the three-dimensional transportation, the better the effect of postal industry development." Ma Junsheng, director of the State Post Bureau, said that in the future, the postal industry will rely on my country's unique high-speed railway network. Vigorously promote the construction of the high-speed rail express network, in addition to expand the air delivery network, accelerate the layout of international mail express air hubs, and improve efficiency by relying on the comparative advantages of comprehensive transportation.
