Xian
to build China's first hinterland international transit hub port.
The
northwestern China's Xian city in Shaanxi province plans to build China's first
hinterland international transit hub port to link the overland international
freight route of "silk road economic belt", reports Xinhua.
The proposed
Xian Hinterland International Transit Hub Port will focus on international
logistics transit business and develop itself into a strategic pivot offering
services between China's east coastal and western regions.
The hinterland
hub facility will work closely with a number of eastern coastal ports and
provide convenient sea-rail intermodal and seamless joint services for more
hinterland enterprises by taking advantages of Xian International Port
District's Xian Railway Container Central Station, Xian Comprehensive Free Trade
Zone and Xian Road Port.
In addition, the hub port also will enhance the western region's ability of
introducing and undertaking high-level export processing and equipment
manufacturing projects and balance development of the eastern and western
areas. |
