All 117 counties in Shanxi province have entered the "highway era", achieving the goal of county-level highway connectivity a year ahead of schedule. This comprehensive network is now a significant driver for the province's high-quality development.

Based on the expanded network, Shanxi is forming integrated transportation corridors, providing essential support for resource export and industrial collaboration. The optimized logistics channels have accelerated the export of major commodities such as coal and mechanical equipment, positioning Shanxi on a more accessible and efficient path to external markets.

Shanxi has developed comprehensive bonded zones and cross-border e-commerce parks along the highways, simplifying customs procedures and attracting foreign investment. The province is also transforming areas around highways into new logistics industry hubs, fostering coordinated industrial chain development.

Shanxi Transportation Holdings Group has introduced digital technology into highway operations, enhancing cross-border logistics efficiency, reducing transportation costs for businesses, and advancing green and low-carbon transformation. This provides an environmentally competitive edge for export-oriented industries.

Shanxi will continue to focus on smart transportation, further improving the highway network and accelerating the development of a modern transportation industry system to transition the province's inland resource-based economy into a high-quality open model of "corridor + hub + industry".
