Transportation serves as the foundation of economic and social development, and high-quality development in the transportation sector plays a crucial supporting role in accelerating the Chinese-style modernization process, presenting value implications consistent with Chinese-style modernization. Under the strong leadership of the Party, China’s transportation industry has focused on the central tasks and served the overall interests, achieving remarkable accomplishments through years of practical exploration and deep reforms. However, challenges such as inadequate comprehensive transportation infrastructure, underdeveloped levels of technological innovation drive, slow progress in green and low-carbon transformation, and the need for improved quality of transportation services still exist. Facing the new tasks and missions endowed by the new journey of comprehensively building a modern socialist country, China’s transportation industry needs to focus on constructing a highquality comprehensive transportation infrastructure system, fostering an ecosystem for transportation technology innovation, accelerating the process of green and low-carbon transformation, and expanding the supply of highquality transportation services. By coordinating multiple sectors and paths, high-quality development in transportation can be promoted, contributing to the process of Chinese-style modernization.
