High-quality development is an important measure to speed up the construction of a strong transportation country and a modern comprehensive transportation system, as well as an inherent requirement to serve the construction of a new development pattern and a socialist modern country in an all-round way. In recent years, the Ministry of Transport, in conjunction with relevant departments, local people's governments and relevant railway, port and shipping enterprises, has thoroughly implemented the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping's important instructions and conscientiously implemented the decis ion-making and deployment of the Party Central Committee and the State Council. In accordance with the requirements of the Outline for the Construction of a Strong Transport Country, the Outline for the National Comprehensive Three-dimensional Transport Network Planning, the 14th Five-Year Plan for the Development of Modern Comprehensive Transport System and the Work Programme for Promoting the Development of Multimodal Transport, Optimizing and Adjusting the Transport Structure (2021-2025), we will further accelerate the development of containers and bulk goods in coastal and inland ports. Obvious results have been achieved. In order to give full play to the comparative advantages of waterway and railway transport and the efficiency of comprehensive transport combination, accelerate the adjustment and optimization of transport structure, promote the green and low-carbon development of transportation, and focus on promoting the high-quality development of rail-water intermodal transport, this plan is formulated.
First, the overall requirements
are guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, based on the new stage of development, to implement the new development concept completely, accurately and comprehensively, to coordinate development and security, to speed up the construction of a strong transportation country as the lead, to promote high-quality development as the theme, and to promote the development of a strong transportation country. With the deepening of supply-side structural reform as the main line, infrastructure connectivity, transport organization optimization, information sharing and policy standards convergence as the starting point, we should adhere to planning guidance, strengthen project traction, innovate intermodal transport mechanism, reduce logistics costs, promote integrated development, improve operational efficiency, accelerate the construction of modern comprehensive transportation system, and better serve the construction of a new development pattern.
By 2025, the main ports along the Yangtze River will be fully covered by railways, and the rate of railway entry into major coastal ports will reach about 90%. The volume of rail-water container transport in major ports nationwide reached 14 million TEUs, with an average annual growth rate of more than 15%; the proportion of bulk cargo transported by waterways, railways, closed belt corridors and new energy vehicles in major coastal ports such as Beijing-tianjin-hebei and surrounding areas, Yangtze River Delta region and Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area reached 80%, and the high-quality development of rail-water transport has entered the fast lane.
2. Main tasks
(1) Strengthen the integration and improve the level of facilities connectivity.
1. Considering the development needs of port container and bulk cargo rail-water intermodal transport as a whole, when the port builds or expands container and bulk cargo operation areas, in principle, the railway for collection and distribution should be planned and constructed simultaneously. Relying on the "one map" of territorial spatial planning to implement the supervision information system, and strengthen the coordination and connection with the management and control elements of territorial spatial planning. We should strengthen the connection between port and railway planning, and reserve land for intermodal transport development lines and hub construction. Considering the construction conditions, transport demand and cargo distribution of major ports as a whole, we should strengthen the planning and construction of container and bulk cargo railway transport backbone corridors and port collection and distribution system, and promote the efficient connection between railway transport network and water transport network.
2. Establish a list management and update mechanism for port collection and distribution railway construction projects, and dynamically update the collection and distribution railway construction projects according to the Pre-project progress, the guarantee of land use elements and the implementation of investment. Focus on the implementation of the collection and distribution railway and the "last kilometer" unimpeded project in major ports and important port areas, equipped with sufficient railway facilities such as arrival and departure lines, shunting lines, loading and unloading lines, so as to realize that the railway goes deep into the wharf yard. Local people's governments and port and shipping enterprises are encouraged to actively participate in the construction of railway projects for collection and distribution, and to promote the diversification of investment in railway construction for port collection and distribution.
3. To study the railway transport capacity behind the port and speed up the construction or expansion of new lines in bottleneck sections that do not meet the transport demand. We will build and make good use of railway stations for rail-water intermodal transport, improve supporting facilities such as unloading, storage yards and roads, and promote the "seamless connection" between railway stations and port yards. In combination with the national logistics hub, the national comprehensive freight hub and the railway logistics base, we will promote the optimization and adjustment of the layout of rail-water intermodal railway stations, and implement a number of inland railway station construction and capacity expansion projects to meet business needs.
(2) Strengthen organizational coordination and improve the smooth level of intermodal transport.
4. Encourage railway, port and shipping enterprises to jointly carry out marketing, strengthen the development of rail-water intermodal transport sources, vigorously develop cross-border e-commerce, refrigerated containers, commercial vehicles, container-suitable bulk cargo and other rail-water intermodal transport, and promote the formation of a rail-water intermodal transport development pattern of "intermodal transport hub + logistics channel + service network". We will promote the organization of the whole process of rail-water intermodal transport, explore the development of intermodal container sharing and joint allocation, reduce container unpacking, transshipment and empty container allocation, and take the lead in achieving a breakthrough in the field of rail-water intermodal transport. Conditional regions should promote railway re-entry and direct transportation, and open point-to-point short-distance circular trains to improve the timeliness of transportation.
5. Actively expand the radiation scope of domestic and international routes and transport services of major ports according to transport demand and cargo distribution, support the extension of seaport functions inland, promote efficient land-sea linkage, and enhance the radiation-driven capacity of seaports; Expand the railway freight market, strengthen the connection and matching of railway trains and ship schedules, and enhance the service capacity and level of rail-water intermodal transport. Railway container and bulk cargo handling stations will be laid out as a whole, railway trackless stations will be developed, and the inland supply market will be expanded. We will accelerate the development of international container rail-water intermodal transport and further promote the development of China-Europe trains, transit transport trains and new land-sea corridors in the western region with major ports as nodes. Give full play to the role of "West-to-East Coal Transport" and "North-to-South Coal Transport" as the main intermodal transport channel, promote the automation, specialization and green development of intermodal transport equipment, and further enhance the service and support capacity of coal, iron and water intermodal transport.
6. Tap the potential of intermodal railway freight transport, coordinate the transport demand of high-speed rail and ordinary speed trains, passenger cars and freight cars, coordinate the transport capacity of national railways and local railways, further simplify the procedures for the return of railway containers, and enhance the facilitation level of direct railway transport with different property rights. To tap the potential of intermodal ports, we will actively promote the intelligent transformation of existing container terminals, the specialized transformation of general terminals and the upgrading of old terminals by means of terminal reconstruction and expansion, equipment automation transformation, additional bridge cranes and capacity expansion of storage yards, so as to enhance the port's service support capacity and safety resilience. We should tap the potential of intermodal shipping, further optimize the arrangement of shipping schedule and the connection between ship and shore, and speed up the turnover of shipping capacity.
7. We will actively promote the "bulk collection" of container-suitable bulk goods such as grain, fertilizer, copper concentrate, bauxite, cement clinker and coke, strengthen the construction of port facilities and equipment and technological innovation, encourage ports to allocate "large flow" filling and unloading equipment in accordance with actual conditions, and encourage railways to run customized "bulk collection" trains for large customers. Deeply carry out the management of overweight container transportation in port domestic trade, strengthen the linkage among port, shipping and railway enterprises, prohibit overweight containers from entering and leaving ports, loading and unloading cars, and promote the safe development of rail-water intermodal transport.
(3) Strengthen innovation and development and improve the efficiency of intermodal transport services.
8. Encourage and support railway, port, shipping, freight forwarding and other enterprises to strengthen cooperation, with platform as the support, capital as the link, and equity cooperation as the way, through the establishment of joint ventures, the establishment of operating agencies, the establishment of regional development cooperation alliances, cross-industrial clusters and other forms, to strengthen the integration of intermodal logistics resources, so as to achieve the goal. We will support the development of specialized, digital and asset-light multimodal transport operators, foster and strengthen whole-process logistics operators, and provide whole-process integrated logistics solutions. Encourage qualified intermodal transport operators to carry out business process transformation, compress business redundancy links, provide "one-stop" door-to-door service of "one-stop consignment, one-time charge, one-time certification, one order to the end", and build the leading enterprise brand of rail-water intermodal transport.
9. Actively promote convenient customs clearance, encourage qualified areas to use advanced technology and equipment to quickly complete the inspection of import and export container cargo, and enhance the customer stickiness of rail-water intermodal transport. We will study and promote the mode of "direct lifting of imported goods alongside the ship" and "direct loading of exported goods on arrival". Promote the integrated management of rail-water intermodal transport stations and port operations with mature conditions, implement rapid customs clearance, rapid loading and unloading transshipment, and reduce "short reverse" transportation.
10. Promote the electronic and online processing of rail-water intermodal transport business documents. Relying on the construction of multimodal transport demonstration project, we will carry out the "one single system" in the field of container rail-water intermodal transport, and take the lead in breaking through the "one single system" in the field of rail-water intermodal transport. Encourage qualified intermodal transport enterprises to develop "one single system" service, study and improve the functions of "one single system" electronic tag coding and information collection, sharing and monitoring, and promote the communication of document information and the monitoring and traceability of the whole transportation process.

Enhance the price advantage and market competitiveness of rail-water intermodal transport. Standardize the charging behavior in key areas and links such as railways, ports, shipping agencies, shipping companies and freight forwarders, so as to ensure that the list is consistent with the actual situation and that there are no charges outside the list. Implement flexible railway price adjustment strategy and freight settlement mode, and give a certain settlement period to units with better credit.
13. We will promote the in-depth application of 5G, Beidou navigation, big data, blockchain, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things in the railway and water transport industry, and explore ways to promote cross-regional and cross-business collaboration and full cargo tracking. We will promote the opening and exchange of information on customs, maritime affairs, railways, ports and shipping, explore real-time access to information on railway plans, arrival and departure times, cargo handling, ship arrival and departure, and realize real-time access to information on vehicles, ships, containers and cargo. We will support the interconnection of rail-water intermodal transport information systems and encourage the development of third-party supply chain full-link data interconnection and sharing services. We will improve the standard system of information exchange interface for rail-water intermodal transport, promote the docking and real-time exchange of information systems such as railways and ports, and enhance the efficiency of MTR collaboration and the overall efficiency of intermodal transport services.
3. Safeguard measures
14. The Ministry of Transport, the State Railway Administration, the State Railway Group and other units jointly set up a special class to promote the development of rail-water intermodal transport, carry out regular consultation, and formulate and implement the key points of annual work. We will actively promote the pilot task of building a strong rail-water intermodal transport country, build a number of demonstration projects of rail-water intermodal transport, and form a demonstration-driven effect as soon as possible. Local governments should establish a working mechanism to coordinate and promote the development of rail-water intermodal transport, and coordinate and solve the problems related to the development of rail-water intermodal transport in a timely manner. Compact the main responsibility of rail-water intermodal transport safety production enterprises and the supervision responsibility of management departments to create a good environment.
15. Promote the reservation of port hub development space, the management and control of land use functions, and the coordination of development timing, and increase the support for the guarantee of land and sea use elements and railway integration conditions for major ports, collection and distribution railways and supporting construction projects. To speed up the formalities for port collection and distribution railway construction projects, projects involving the occupation of permanent basic farmland or the red line of ecological protection may be included in the list of major national projects in accordance with the prescribed conditions and procedures. We should make good use of the national comprehensive freight hub to supplement the chain and strengthen the chain vehicle purchase tax policy, increase financial support, and support the construction of key projects of rail-water intermodal transport. Enterprises such as ports, shipping and railways are encouraged to jointly construct and operate railway collection and distribution projects by means of equity cooperation in accordance with the principle of marketization.
16.
