Today, Jiangxi has established a comprehensive transportation network composed of railways, highways, water routes and airlines.
Highway plays an effective role in short and long distance transportation.
Having the provincial capital city Nanchang as the hub, the state highways serve as a framework, the provincial roads as arteries, and the roads linking counties and townships as branches, they constitute the network spanning the entire province and linking Jiangxi with the six bordering provinces. Meanwhile, railway also plays a vital role in Jiangxi's transportation, especially in terms of long-distance travel and cargo handling. The Beijing-Kowloon Railway covers over 700 kilometers running down through Jiangxi Province from north to south. Kowloon Railway is the longest part comparing with other provinces, showing the most beautiful landscape presenting the most abundant nature resources, and providing both the most numerous opportunities for investment and the largest potential for development. Since ancient time, water routes have been widely employed for cargo transport to outside.
