Towing tractor transport will promote the development of the tractor market

According to reports, the Ministry of Transport issued a notice stating that in order to implement the State Council's "Notice on Further Strengthening Fuel-Saving and Electricity-Saving Work" and promote the development of drop-and-hook transportation, China will renovate the traditional freight yards to meet the needs of suspension and transportation, and will accelerate the integration of The construction of transportation hubs promotes effective convergence and integrated transportation between various modes of transport such as public railways and public waters.

The "Notice" pointed out that at present, China's drop-and-hook transportation is lagging behind, with fewer tractors and trailers and lower ratio of towing to loading, and road freight transportation is still dominated by common single-trucks, which is inconsistent with the requirements of energy-saving emission reduction and development of modern logistics. adapt. Compared with the traditional transportation mode, the suspension and transportation has obvious advantages: First, it reduces the waiting time for loading and unloading, accelerates the turnover of the tractor, improves the transportation efficiency and labor productivity; second, it reduces the empty driving and invalid transportation of vehicles, and reduces energy consumption and exhaust emissions. The third is to save storage facilities for goods, to facilitate the owner, reduce logistics costs; fourth is to facilitate the organization of waterway ro-ro transport, railway humpback transport and other multimodal transport, and promote the development of integrated transport. The dumping and transport has been widely used internationally and has become a very popular advanced transport organization. It is of great significance to develop sluggish transport to reduce logistics costs, promote the development of modern logistics and comprehensive transportation, promote energy conservation and emission reduction, and improve the overall quality of economic operations. All localities and relevant departments should further raise awareness, strengthen organization and leadership, and take practical measures to effectively guide and promote the development of dumping and transportation.

To create a good environment for the development of dumping and transportation, China will improve its policies and management systems. The “Notice” requires that in the future, the number of trailer inspections will be reduced, the trailer insurance will be adjusted, the customs supervision system for suspension vehicles will be improved, the toll collection method will be adjusted, the standardization of equipment for the transport of dumped trailers will be promoted, the management of the trailer’s documents will be improved, and transportation companies will be encouraged to expand their transportation networks. Encourage companies to strengthen collaboration.

In addition, the "Notice" also pointed out that it will increase capital investment and improve the hub station facilities. Through policy guidance, we will further increase the investment in the construction of the station yard. According to the characteristics of the dumping and transportation operations and the technical features, we will learn from foreign experience and upgrade the traditional freight stations. We will gradually build stations with clear hierarchies, complete functions, and smooth connections. The node system supports the development of dumping and transport. Accelerate the construction of a comprehensive transportation hub and promote the effective convergence and integrated transportation between various modes of transport such as public railways and public waters. Encourage the use of road drop-and-hang transport for the development of waterway ro-ro transport, railway humpback transport, and container multimodal transport to achieve rapid transit and seamless connection between public railways and public waters and promote the construction of an integrated transport system.

The "Notice" requires all local transportation departments to join forces with local development and reform commissions and other relevant departments to select regions and companies with conditions, organize pilot launching and suspension of transport, explore and summarize experiences, and play a demonstration role. For areas and companies listed as pilots for suspension and transportation, strengthen organization and leadership, implement supporting policies, coordinate and resolve practical problems in the pilot process, and create a favorable external environment for the development of suspension and transportation. On the basis of the pilots, timely summary will be made to formulate and improve relevant technical standards and service specifications to promote the sustained and healthy development of dumping and transport.

Background: Drop and Pull Transport means the tractor in accordance with a predetermined operating plan, cargo loading and unloading point Shuaixia the drag of the trailer and put on other transport trailer continue to run the organization. The combination of the tractor and the trailer is not limited by the different regions, companies, and license plates, but the total mass of the traction traction vehicle should match the total mass of the trailer.
