The China-Europe freight train service, crossing thousands of miles, builds a

and countries along the route. China-Europe freight train services (Wuhan),

which has been running for over seven years, has become an important window for

Hubei to open wider to the world, an important platform for improving business

environment as well as developing the province's export-oriented economy.

 

To ensure and serve the regular operation of the freight train, the area has

invested many resources every year in the past few years. The central railway

station covers more than 2,000 mu of land with an investment of about 1 billion

yuan for its construction and services.

 

Four new China-Europe freight trains have been added via this station this

year. Data showed that in the first seven months of 2021, a total of 192 trains

and 18,144 TEU were delivered by the cross-border freight train service, an

increase of 50 trains and 4,788 TEU.

 

Such convenience is also a result of the establishment of Hubei Airport

International Express Supervision Center in October 2017 in Dongxihu District,

which is the only approved customs supervision platform in operation in Hubei.

 

The express center uses intelligent supervision to offer 24/7 customs

clearance. Through the express auxiliary system and other information systems,

the express declaration and identity verification are done online with

automated risk warning and smart physical goods supervision.

 

The customs clearance process has been streamlined, cutting the customs

clearance time. From January to July of 2021, the center conducted customs

clearance of about 758,100 orders with a cargo volume of about 1,181.01 tonnes

at a total worth of about 283 million yuan.

transported, the China-Europe Freight Train (Wuhan) is constantly driving

closer exchanges between provinces and cities and countries along the Silk Road

Economic Belt. Attracted by convenient transportation and low transportation

cost, many enterprises have settled in Wuhan and Dongxihu District.

Previously, the products produced in its Wuhan production base were first

shipped to Shenzhen and then shipped to other countries by sea. Under the

suggestion and coordination of Dongxihu District, the company's products can be

exported directly through China-Europe freight train services, boosting the

transportation efficiency.
