Abstract

At present, the proportion of railroad and waterway cargo transportation in China’s cargo transportation system is growing year by year, and Rail-water intermodal transportation is highly efficient and less polluting, which is very suitable for the current economic development, and its development has inestimable potential. Facing the growing demand for transportation, it is of special significance to improve the transportation capacity and management level of Rail-water transportation in China. This paper first analyzes the development foundation and environment of Nanjing port, then takes Longtan port as an example and proposes the main measures such as improving Nanjing’s Rail-water transportation infrastructure construction, integrating railroad resources, reforming operation and management, and formulating port cluster development planning.

Highlights

  • Railway-water intermodal transportation is an efficient way of transporting goods between waterways and railroads, which is important for promoting the construction of comprehensive urban transportation system, improving the modern development of logistics, especially responding to and supporting “the Belt and Road Initiative”, “the Yangtze River Economic Belt” and other national strategies

  • Information from all parties cannot be shared in real time, which greatly restricts the development of Rail-water intermodal transportation [2]

  • (3) Outstanding Advantages of Railroad Transportation Resources Nanjing East Railway Station has been designated as one of the two major marshaling stations of Shanghai Railway Bureau, which is responsible for the arrival and departure of vehicles from various railway lines and stations in the Yangtze River Delta region, and Nanjing Port has been cooperating with Nanjing East Railway Station for many years to carry out intermodal transportation by rail and water

Summary

Introduction

Railway-water intermodal transportation is an efficient way of transporting goods between waterways and railroads, which is important for promoting the construction of comprehensive urban transportation system, improving the modern development of logistics, especially responding to and supporting “the Belt and Road Initiative”, “the Yangtze River Economic Belt” and other national strategies. The powerful advantages and roles of Nanjing as a national transportation hub city and a national transportation hub city are increasingly apparent. Nanjing as a national comprehensive transportation hub city and the Yangtze River Delta mega-city, Rail-water intermodal transportation has a unique advantage that is difficult to reach other cities along the river, especially after the 12.5meter deep-water channel to Nanjing, Nanjing will realize a huge leap and transformation from “riverrail” to “sea-rail”. This paper will explore the current situation and problems of Nanjing’s Rail-water intermodal transportation, analyze the relevant foundation and environment, and propose measures for Nanjing’s Rail-water intermodal transportation development based on the hub economy, taking Longtan Port as an example
