On the afternoon of August 23, Hubei Provincial Party Secretary Guan Zhiou met with Liu Wei, Party Secretary and Minister of the Ministry of Transport in Wuhan. On behalf of the provincial committee and provincial government, Guan Zhiou welcomed Liu Wei and his entourage and thanked the Ministry of Transport for its strong support for Hubei's development over a long period of time. He said that currently, the whole province is anchoring the mission given by General Secretary Xi Jinping to speed up the construction of an important strategic fulcrum for the rise of the central region, accelerate the construction of a modern integrated transportation system, build a half-hour commuter circle in the Wuhan metropolitan area, strengthen the Huahu world-class air cargo hub, improve the efficiency of Yangtze River Golden Waterway transportation, and promote coordinated regional development. We hope that the Ministry of Transport will continue to pay attention to and support Hubei and strengthen work guidance in the construction of a “iron, water and air” multimodal transport system, the improvement of transportation infrastructure in the Wuhan metropolitan area, waterway improvement in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, the development of a green smart ship industry, the construction of a “dual hub” for civil aviation, passenger and cargo, and the expansion and quality of highways to help Hubei better transform its location advantage into a development advantage.
