The National Development and Reform Commission recently increased its support for the upgrading and transformation of smart transportation systems in small and medium-sized cities through special budget allocations.
The National Development and Reform Commission recently stepped up its support for upgrading and transforming smart transportation systems in small and medium-sized cities through dedicated budget allocations. This policy focuses on the digital, networked, and intelligent transformation of transportation infrastructure, with a particular emphasis on supporting the construction of urban road sensing networks, the deployment of optimized traffic signal systems, and the development of intelligent bus dispatch platforms. Funds will be prioritized for small and medium-sized cities where traffic congestion is a pressing issue and public transportation services urgently need improvement. By building multi-source data-integrated "transportation brain" platforms, these initiatives aim to enable real-time vehicle monitoring, accident early warning, and efficient emergency dispatch capabilities.
On the technological front, policies encourage the adoption of cutting-edge technologies such as 5G + Beidou high-precision positioning, AI-powered video analytics, and edge computing, to drive the implementation of applications like adaptive traffic signal control, bus priority systems, and intelligent parking resource management. For instance, some pilot cities have already achieved improved bus punctuality rates and enhanced intersection efficiency by deploying smart roadside units. Meanwhile, the policy emphasizes maximizing the financial investment's effectiveness, requiring projects to feature replicable and scalable application models while avoiding redundant infrastructure development.
This budget support synergizes with the "Dual Focus" construction projects, leveraging the coordinated use of ultra-long-term special government bonds and local special-purpose bonds to provide sustained financial backing for traffic management in small- and medium-sized cities, thereby helping to build a safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly modern transportation system.
