Implement the project to improve the safety and security capabilities of rural roads. Solidly carry out measures to improve the management of road safety facilities and traffic order, and continue to deepen the demonstration project of “Thousands of Lights and Thousands of Belts” on rural roads. Focus on strengthening the investigation and rectification of hidden dangers of rural roads and bridges and tunnels, implement and improve rural road safety and life protection projects, and carry out in-depth reconstruction of dilapidated and old bridges and new bridge construction projects. Strictly implement the design, construction and use of the traffic safety facilities and the main project of the newly reconstructed rural highways at the same time. Increase efforts to restore rural roads damaged by disasters.

Implement the rural road and industry integration development project. Vigorously develop the "rural road +" model, combine the layout of rural industries and the construction of characteristic villages and towns, key rural tourism villages and towns, etc., promote the in-depth integration of rural roads and industries, accelerate the construction of rural industrial roads, tourism roads, and resource roads, and improve major rural economic nodes. External road traffic conditions, serve the development of rural industries. Explore and support the development path of rural highway "road extension economy".

Implement the project to improve the service level of rural roads. Focusing on the integration of transportation and tourism, improve the service facilities along rural highways, effectively utilize rural passenger and cargo depots, maintenance roads and other facilities as well as idle land resources along rural highways, and expand the development of parking, charging, shopping, leisure, sightseeing, tourism consulting, etc. Service function, improve rural road service capacity and sustainable development capacity. Empower the high-quality development of rural roads with information technology and improve service and management efficiency.

Actively attract peasants to work locally and nearby to increase income

Promote the participation of farmers in construction. Establish and improve a long-term mechanism for the high-quality development of the "Four Good Rural Roads" and for absorbing the employment of people with employment difficulties. In the field of rural road construction and management and protection, promote the method of food-for-work, expand the scope of implementation and beneficiaries, and give priority to attracting local rural people, especially low-income people such as those who have been lifted out of poverty (including those who prevent returning to poverty) and other low-income people to participate in project construction and maintenance after completion.
