People's governments of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, ministries and commissions and institutions directly under the State Council:
China is rich in inland water transport resources. Since the reform and opening up, especially in recent 10 years, remarkable achievements have been made in the construction and development of inland waterway transportation in China, and a pattern of inland waterway transportation with the Yangtze River, Pearl River, Beijing-Hangzhou Canal, Huaihe River, Heilongjiang River and Songliao River system as the main body has been formed. The trunk line of the Yangtze River has become the largest and busiest navigable river in the world, which has played an important role in promoting the coordinated development of river basin economy. However, there is still a big gap between the development level of inland river transportation in China and the requirements of the development of national economy and comprehensive transportation system. In order to further develop the advantages and potential of inland waterway transportation, the following suggestions are put forward to speed up the development of inland waterway transportation such as the Yangtze River.
First, fully understand the significance of accelerating the development of inland water transport such as the Yangtze River.
(1) Accelerating the development of inland waterways such as the Yangtze River is conducive to building a modern comprehensive transportation system. Inland river transportation has the advantages of large transportation capacity, small floor space and low energy consumption. Speeding up the development of inland river transportation, realizing the organic connection between waterway transportation and highway, railway, aviation, pipeline and other modes of transportation, developing multimodal transport, and giving full play to the comparative advantages and combined benefits of various modes of transportation are conducive to optimizing the transportation structure, reducing the cost of social comprehensive logistics, changing the mode of transportation development, enhancing the function of national defense transportation and building a modern comprehensive transportation system.
(2) Accelerating the development of inland waterways such as the Yangtze River is conducive to adjusting and optimizing the industrial layout along the Yangtze River. Inland river transportation has unique advantages in the transportation of bulk materials such as energy raw materials, containers and major equipment. Accelerating the development of inland river transportation is conducive to promoting the development of industrial belts along the Yangtze River, such as electric power, steel and automobiles, promoting industrial upgrading in the eastern region and undertaking industrial transfer in the central and western regions, and optimizing the economic layout and industrial structure of the river basin.
(3) Accelerating the development of inland waterways such as the Yangtze River is conducive to promoting the coordinated development of regional economy. Speeding up the development of inland river transportation, giving full play to the important role of the Yangtze River across the eastern, central and western regions, the Xijiang shipping trunk line connecting the southwest with Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, and the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal connecting the north and the south are conducive to the effective utilization and complementary advantages of resources, technology, capital and other elements between regions, which is in line with the major strategic requirements for the implementation of the western development. The rise of central China and the development of eastern China play an important role in promoting the coordinated development of regional economy.
(4) Accelerating the development of inland waterways such as the Yangtze River is conducive to promoting energy conservation and emission reduction. With the rapid development of China's economy and society, the constraints of resources and environment are becoming increasingly severe, and the contradiction between developing transportation and reducing energy consumption and environmental pollution is becoming increasingly acute. Vigorously developing inland river transportation is conducive to accelerating the reduction of energy and resource consumption, developing a low-carbon economy and reducing pollutant emissions, which conforms to the overall requirements of building a resource-saving and environment-friendly society and has important practical significance for accelerating the transformation of economic development mode.
