The railway in Bohe port area was started, adding a fine brushwork to the railway sea intermodal transport in western Guangdong

On the morning of November 13, the commencement of the railway project from Maoming East Railway Station to Bohe port area was held in Bohe new port area, Binhai New Area, Maoming, Guangdong Province, with a construction period of 2 years

Bohe port is located in Bohe Bay, Southeast of Maoming City, Guangdong Province, and opened on March 23, 2019. In less than eight months, the State Railway Group Corporation, Guangdong Province and Maoming City have coordinated and jointly funded the construction and made quick decisions. From this, we can see the importance of Bohe port railway project to the western region of Guangdong Province

mentions that people in Maoming may think of litchi, longan and other "Lingnan good fruits" as China's fruit production base, but in Maoming's eyes, oil is the driving force for Maoming's development. Maoming is the largest petrochemical base in South China, an important petrochemical production and export base in South China, an energy base in Guangdong Province, and the construction of Bohe port railway The low-cost transportation mode of rail sea intermodal transportation will support the export of fruits and oil in western Guangdong. The commencement of Bohe port railway project not only promotes the economy of Maoming, but also has a profound impact on the construction of economic belt and the organization structure of social freight transport in western Guangdong The only 49.9 km railway from the East Maoming station of

to Bohe port area is the lifeline of the port dredging artery and Bohe port area of Maoming. Maoming's biggest advantage lies in the sea, and its greatest potential lies in the sea. The close connection between Maoming East Railway Station and Bohe port will open up the "last kilometer" of railway into the port, solve the problem of cargo transportation reshipment, and enhance the market competitiveness

"take first, then", "main extension" and the commencement of Bohe port railway will enrich the freight channel in western Guangdong. Bohe port is a deep-water port with less water and silt, which can be built into 300000 ton berths. After seamless connection with the railway, the annual throughput will have a great leap. The increase of railway trains, the increase of berthing ships and other railway trains and the opening of cold chain transportation are the trend. From the perspective of transportation mode, the completion of Bohe port railway can improve the collection and distribution capacity of Bohe port, increase the freight volume of Yizhan railway, and improve the rail sea intermodal mode of Bohe port, which can reduce the freight transportation cost. Under the environment of advocating green and low carbon, the rail sea intermodal mode is undoubtedly the future direction, which will not hinder people's travel and breathe fresh air. It is hoped that the railway from Maoming East Railway Station to Bohe port area will be opened as scheduled, integrated into the freight transport organization as soon as possible, and added a rich fine brushwork to the rail sea intermodal transport landscape in western Guangdong.
