On July 21, Cai Tuanjie, director of safety and director of the Department of Transportation Services of the Ministry of Transport, said at the press conference of the State Information Office that the transportation sector will drive the reduction of logistics costs in 2025, which has strongly contributed to a reduction in the ratio of total social logistics costs to GDP to 13.9%. The “15th Five-Year Plan” period will accelerate the construction of logistics networks, promote the improvement of the construction of key logistics channels, deepen the interconnection of important hubs, supplement the shortcomings of urban and rural logistics facilities, and strengthen the construction of international logistics facilities. Implement a new round of actions to repair and strengthen the national integrated freight hub chain. The “15th Five-Year Plan” period will take about three years to concentrate efforts on supporting about 30 more cities to reinforce the chain, coordinate hard investment and soft construction, promote hard connectivity of facilities and equipment and soft connectivity of standard services, and further enhance multimodal transport functions and cross-modal conversion efficiency. Implement multimodal transport offensive operations. Focus on major ports, important inland ports, large-scale logistics parks, large-scale industrial parks, China-Europe-Central Asia train assembly centers, etc., and build about 1,000 multimodal transport nodes. The first batch will focus on upgrading about 300 major freight nodes, and will focus on improving the one-hour replacement rate for multimodal transport. Promote the digital empowerment of transportation and logistics, explore major innovative projects such as typical scenarios and intelligent truck driving, standardize the business activities of online freight transport platforms, and plan and launch pilot projects for standardized applications of unmanned express delivery vehicles. Cultivate leading transportation and logistics enterprises, and accelerate the cultivation of a number of leading transportation and logistics integrators with cross-modal integration and specialization. The plan is to cultivate around 100 integrated logistics integrators by 2030.
