Construction of the Hohhot metro started in 2016. According to the government plan, the metro will consist of lines 1 and 2, stretching over 51.4 kilometers with investment of 33.9 billion yuan ($5 billion).
The Hohhot Baita International Airport is the largest air transport hub in Inner Mongolia, with airlines radiating to almost all the provincial capitals and small-to-medium cities in China.
The Beijing-Baotou Railway and the Jining-Baotou double-track railway have stations in Hohhot, and almost all Chinese cities can be reached by train from the city.
There are highways linking Hohhot with its counties and dozens of coaches are scheduled to the nearby towns each day.
