Main Problems
Railway and inland-waterway have developed
behind highway, and excessive transport
committed by vehicles
High quality transport service scarce
Integrated intermodal transport
develops slowly
Lack of sustainable capital support
Page 16
Priorities of Development
1. Forming perfect integrated transport
infrastructure networks
2. Developing efficient, economical
integrated transportation corridors
3. Improving integrated regional
transportation system
4. Building modern logistics and
distribution system
Page 17
Priorities of Development
5. Putting more priority in urban public traffic
6. Developing inter-city railways in region and
urban agglomerations
7. Building perfect regional layout of integrated
passenger transportation hubs and logistics hubs
8. Strengthening the way of transport going
green and environmental protection

3 Prospects for Development of Intermodal Logistics Service in China
Page 20
Building Complete Logistics System
• Coal
• Crude oil
• Iron ore
• Grain
• Steel
Page 21
Integrating Resource along Transport Chain
• Develop integrated multi-modal transport, establishing relative law, policy and standards
• Integrate dispersive cargo resources and transport enterprises based on internet
Page 22
Integrating Resource along Transport Chain
• Integrate container transport between railway and
waterway, with transport volume approaching to 2
million TEU per-year now
• Six major container seaports are inspired to
develop integrated container transport
• More attention are paid to build railways
connecting ports
Page 23
Constructing Basic Urban Logistics Network
• Form fine layout of logistics parks and distribution
centers in city
• Avoid excessive trucks into urban areas
• Improve management to reduce stress on
transport safety and environment raised by
express transportation
Page 24
Constructing Basic Rural Logistics Network
• Build rural distribution center network
• Support comprehensive use of kinds of
infrastructure in commerce, post and agriculture
• Extend functions of rural passenger transportation
hub to logistics service
