2. Continue to build green transportation infrastructure
Firstly, make overall planning for the layout of transportation infrastructure. Study
and formulate the plan for comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network.
Promote the integrated development of railways, highways, waterways, civil aviation, and postal services, based on the national space planning for urban, agricultural
and ecological spaces, the redlines for protecting the ecosystems, the permanent
basic cropland, and the boundaries for urban development. Secondly, strengthen
the intensive use of transportation resources. Promote the intensive use of channel
shorelines and land resources, the comprehensive and recycling of resources, and
the innovation in energy supply for transportation infrastructure. Thirdly, focus on
ecological protection of infrastructure. Promote the development of green infrastructure, implement greening of traffic corridors, and carry out ecological restoration of
traffic infrastructure.
3. Continue to promote clean and low-carbon transportation equipment
Firstly, promote the professional and standardized transportation equipment. Improve
the energy efficiency of transportation equipment and apply advanced and highperformance transportation equipment. Secondly, promote the application of newand clean-energy vehicles. Thirdly, continue to strengthen the prevention and control
of pollution from vehicles and ships. We will implement the Action Plan to Win the
Battle against Pollution from Diesel Trucks, eliminate and update old diesel trucks
with high emission, and comprehensively promote the construction of emission
control areas for ships.
4. Build a modern green transportation governance system
Firstly, establish a green transportation system. Set up a green transportation planning policy system, improve the green transportation standard system, and strengthen
the green transportation data capacity building. Secondly, innovate investment and
financing strategies in green transportation. Enhance the guiding role of financial
funds at all levels, develop economic policies for the green development of transportation, and accelerate the exploration and application of green transportation market
mechanisms. Thirdly, step up implementation, supervision and assessment.
5. Improve the green transportation research and innovation system
Firstly, improve the incentive mechanism for green transportation research. Secondly,
strengthen the R&D and application of green transportation technology. Thirdly,
focus on exchanges and cooperation in green transportation in an all-round way.
The green development of transportation is a profound revolution that requires
the wisdom and strength from all sectors of society. On the journey towards green
transportation, let us join hands to carry out reform and innovation, work hard, overcome difficulties, and make sustained efforts. Let’s work intelligently and diligently
