    During the Spring Festival, major ports in Sichuan handled a total cargo throughput of 36,600 metric tons, an increase of 33.04% year-on-year.

    In May last year, Sichuan Port Company was officially inaugurated, integrating Luzhou Port, Yibin Port, Leshan Port, Nanchong Port, and Guang'an Port into a unified entity—known as the 'integration of five ports'—to centrally manage all large- and medium-scale ports along major inland rivers including the Yangtze River, Minjiang River, Jialing River, and Qujiang River. This year's Spring Festival travel rush marks the first such period since the company's establishment.

    During the holiday period, port operations ran efficiently, handling 4,491 TEUs of container throughput, consistent with last year's level; intermodal rail-water container volume reached 896 TEUs, up 22.07% year-on-year; and a total of 34 vessel voyages were operated, an increase of 47.83% compared to the same period last year.

    To ensure smooth logistics and supply chain operations during the Spring Festival, the ports enhanced coordination with customs, railway, and other relevant departments, achieving seamless integration among vessel berthing and departure, cargo loading and unloading, and rail-water transshipment. This enabled the principle of 'immediate unloading upon vessel arrival and immediate transport upon cargo availability', effectively ensuring efficient transfer of goods and raw materials. Moving forward, the company will deepen its focus on multimodal transport and continue to enhance the comprehensive hub capacity of its ports.
