China plans to build a global rapid logistics circle for goods by 2035, which would allow goods to be delivered to neighboring countries and major international cities within two-three days. According to a plan jointly issued by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council, the aim is to build 200,000 kilometers of railways, 460,000 kilometers of highways and 25,000 kilometers of high-level sea lanes by 2035.

The plan is widely anticipated to bolster China’s role in coordinating a global industry chain where it plays a pivotal role.

The total transportation network will reach 700,000 kilometers by 2035, according to the plan, with 27 major coastal ports, 400 civil transportation airports and 80 express hubs.

That will provide support for the ‘global 123’ fast logistics circle for goods, which stands for one-day delivery in domestic market, two-day delivery for neighboring countries and three-day delivery for major global cities, the plan noted.

The blueprint would create the world's largest transportation network, according to Chinse media reports. It will significantly shorten shipping times and facilitate China's goods flow with other major economies, in particular with Asian countries.
