- To make the best use of natural conditions

and, at the same time, make planned intensiveinvestmentinorderto takefull advantageofinland

waterway transport (transport of cargo in bulk,

extra-longandextra-heavy cargowithlowfreight,minimizing environmental pollution) for the

development of inland waterwaytransport tomeet

socio-economic development and internationalecononuc integratIOn requirements and ensure

sustainabledevelopment.

- To develop in a coordinated mannerwaterway transport in terms of channels, routes,

ports,wharves, loadingandunloadingequipment,

means of transportandmanagerialcapacity so asto meet the fey uirements on cargo and passenger

transport with safety, increasingly improved

freight and fare rates; to expand some new

transport routes such as coastal, international,containerand LASH routes.Todevelopa fleet of

new ships(with an average age of 5-7years) and

a rationalstructure (pullingand propellingships:30-35%; self-propelled ships; 65-70%); the fleer's

total tonnage will be 12 million tons.

- Infrastructure:

Toextend thelengthof managedand operated

inland waterways; to ensure the same level of

navigationin some major waterway channelsandroutes; tomodernizethesignahngsystem; to build

canalsforriversections crossing bigurbancenters.

Tomodernize some major ports in keyeconomiczones and special-purpose purls; lu increase the

rate of mechanizedloadingand unloadingin local

pons; tobuildsomepassengerports and wharves.
