In 2014, President Xi Jinping put forward the requirements for the development of the "Four Good Rural Roads", requiring that the construction of rural roads should be adapted to local conditions, people-oriented, compatible with the optimization of the layout of villages and towns, rural economic development, and the safe and convenient travel of farmers. It is necessary to further build and manage rural roads. Good, good protection and good operation, gradually eliminate the traffic bottleneck restricting rural development, and provide better guarantee for the majority of farmers to get rid of poverty and become prosperous.

On the 21st, the 2020 national on-site meeting to promote the improvement of the "Four Good Rural Roads" high-quality development system hosted by the Ministry of Transport was held in Guizhou Province.

According to the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Transport, as of the end of September this year, during the 13th Five-Year Plan period, China’s central government has invested a total of 425.4 billion yuan in vehicle purchase tax funds, driving the entire society to complete 2.14 trillion yuan in rural road investment and 1.388 million new rural roads. Km, the total mileage of rural roads across the country has reached 4.2 million kilometers, accounting for 83.8% of the total road mileage. A total of 246 towns and 33,000 organized villages have been solved with hardened roads, and 1121 new towns and 33,500 organized villages have been opened to passenger cars. Basically, the qualified townships and organized villages will have hardened roads and passenger cars, and rural "difficult travel" has become a history.

The construction of the "Four Good Rural Roads" has accelerated the flow of people and logistics between urban and rural areas, and promoted "urban goods to the countryside, mountain products to cities, e-commerce to villages, and express delivery to households." Go, work, and go smoothly", effectively serving the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy.

Solidly promoting the high-quality development of the "Four Good Rural Roads" is the main direction of China's current and future rural road development. In accordance with the requirements of “good construction, management, maintenance, and operation”, China’s rural road construction will promote the construction of three-tier roads connecting towns and villages, and orderly implement reconstruction projects such as double-lane roads connecting villages and villages, and promote more rural roads. Prefer to enter villages and households, organize and carry out the "eliminate danger" action of dangerous bridges on rural roads to improve the quality of road services and safety performance.

In terms of management and maintenance, China will fully implement the "road leader system" of rural roads, establish a multi-departmental joint law enforcement mechanism, and severely crack down on illegal activities such as over-limit and overload. At the same time, implement the management and maintenance capital investment, and improve the professional and mechanized level of road maintenance through market-based means.

In terms of operation, China will increase its support for rural passenger transport, especially in poor areas, to establish village passenger buses. By implementing fuel subsidy policies and establishing a government purchase service mechanism, China will ensure that rural passenger transport is “open, retained, and well served”. ".

In order to solve the funding problem, China will also increase government investment, innovate the rural road investment and financing system and mechanism, give full play to the guiding role of fiscal and taxation policies and government investment leverage, and leverage more financial capital and social capital to participate in the "Four Good Rural Roads" Construction.
