To build the "three places and one zone", the construction of the transportation system must go first. On July 12, Anhui Provincial Governor Wang Qingxian presided over a special meeting of the provincial government, listened to the work report of the Provincial Department of Transportation, and made in-depth deployment and arrangements to accelerate the construction of a safe, convenient, efficient, green and economical comprehensive transportation system. He emphasized that in order to give full play to Anhui's strategic hub role in the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta, the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and the promotion of the rise of the central region, it is necessary to first strengthen Anhui's position as a comprehensive transportation hub, and in accordance with the decision-making and deployment of the Provincial Party Committee on promoting the construction of a strong transportation province, activate transportation investment in a more open market, and comprehensively accelerate the construction of major transportation projects in the "14th Five-Year Plan" to provide solid support for the creation of the "three places and one zone" (a source of scientific and technological innovation, a gathering place for emerging industries, a new highland for reform and opening up, and a comprehensive green transformation zone for economic and social development).

During the 13th Five-Year Plan period, Anhui's transportation infrastructure system construction has made remarkable progress. Facing the 14th Five-Year Plan, there is still a lot of room for improvement in the process of integrated development in the Yangtze River Delta. Wang Qingxian pointed out that it is necessary to further play the basic, leading and strategic role of transportation, continue to make transportation the key direction of investment in the 14th Five-Year Plan period, and moderately advance the construction of a modern transportation system. First, we must benchmark the goal of the integration of the Yangtze River Delta infrastructure system, identify the gaps and shortcomings, clarify the direction and focus of breakthroughs, and comprehensively promote the optimization and upgrading of Anhui's comprehensive transportation system. Second, we must take project construction as a starting point, vigorously promote the concentrated efforts of expressway construction, continuously improve the level of high-speed rail network, accelerate the construction of trunk shipping network and modern port groups, highlight the shortcomings of civil aviation development, and continuously improve the level of integrated connection and integrated development of various modes of transportation. Third, we must strengthen the basic work of transportation construction, improve the mechanism of departmental coordination and coordinated efforts, plan in advance to do a good job in the planning, design, environmental impact assessment, factor allocation and other preliminary work of key projects, and promote the early start and construction of projects. Fourth, we must fully mobilize the power of the market, widely gather the power of capital, actively promote the reform of the investment and financing system of transportation infrastructure construction, and inject strong momentum into the construction of the transportation system. Fifth, we must focus on the overall planning of transportation infrastructure construction and industrial development, drive the improvement of the industrial ecology through the improvement of the transportation system, and promote the development of modern logistics and port-based industries.
