If you compare China's canals to a large family, arranged by generation, the Lingqu Canal and the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal are the two “old seniors” in the family. The Jianghuai Canal is the “backbone” and has only been navigated for a few years. The Pinglu Canal is a “new place” that has just arrived. The family has a clear division of labor to revitalize the “water network” of the north-south water system. According to the plan, China will build a “four vertical, four horizontal and two networks” high-grade water transport pattern. By 2035, the total length of high-grade waterways will be about 25,000 kilometers. This net has already been woven for more than 18,000 kilometers, and the remaining 7,000 kilometers will have to be covered by one kilometer per kilometer over the next ten years.
