On Sept 28, the main bridge on Fuxing Avenue, Baotou's first urban expressway, was completed and opened. Following the reconstruction, the main road now operates without traffic signals, reducing travel time during peak hours to just 20 minutes, 18 minutes less than before the reconstruction.

Furthermore, several key road connections have been established with the completion of the Baotou North Bypass Highway, part of National Highway 110. This led to a faster transportation network in conjunction with National Highway 210 and Provincial Highway 211.

This year, Baotou Public Transport Group also introduced the first campus bus route, connecting the Longyu Community in Jiuyuan district directly to the Jiuyuan No 1 Experimental Primary School. This dedicated service has alleviated the concerns of over 800 young parents who now have a reliable means of transporting their children to and from school.

To better meet the diverse travel needs of residents, the Baotou Airport has expanded and improved flight services throughout the year. The airport reopened or increased the number of flights to various cities, such as Ningbo, Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Chongqing.
