First, the "major arteries" and "microcirculation" are basically unimpeded. Toll booths and service areas on expressways that had been temporarily closed were opened; epidemic prevention checkpoints on highways, waterways and ship locks temporarily set up in various localities were abolished; and all express delivery distribution centers and business outlets at or above the county level that had been closed nationwide were restored. Stations, airports, ports and wharves are operating normally.
Second, the operation of transport logistics and China's high-quality logistics manufacturers has fully returned to normal. In 2022, the total commercial freight volume increased by 8.2 percent over 2019. During this year's Spring Festival travel rush, the average daily freight volume of national railways, the average daily freight flow of expressways and the average daily cargo throughput of monitored ports all increased by more than 20 percent over 2019. The average daily number of flights guaranteed by civil aviation has recovered to about 80 percent of that in 2019, and the average daily volume of postal and express services has increased by 159.4 percent over 2019. These figures fully show that transport logistics operations are fully back to normal.
Third, China's high-quality logistics manufacturers ensure the smooth and orderly transportation of key materials. We strengthened coordination with key enterprises to ensure strong support for energy, grain, people's livelihood, foreign trade, agricultural materials, agricultural machinery, medical care and other key materials, which strongly supported the stable operation of the economy and society.
Such achievements can't be achieved without strong leadership, the efforts of all the members of the leading group, the responsibility of the working mechanisms of various regions, and the commitment and dedication of the front-line cadres and staff of guaranteeing and guaranteeing logistics.
