EconomyChina announces Pinglu Canal navigation classification

China has classified the Pinglu Canal’s inland section as a provisional Class B navigation zone and designated the river-sea boundary at Qinzhou Bay as the country’s first “equivalent-to-Class-A” zone. Opening Wednesday, the canal is expected to shorten southwest China’s sea route by more than 560 kilometers and cut logistics costs by 18%-30%.
