The 2026 Anhui Province Transportation “Dual Attraction and Dual Introduction” and Government-Bank-Enterprise Matchmaking Conference Was Held.

　　People's Daily Online Hefei, March 12 (Reporters Hu Yusong, Miao Zijian) On the afternoon of March 11, the 2026 Provincial Transportation "Double Recruitment and Double Introduction" and Government-Bank-Enterprise Connection Meeting was held in Hefei. The meeting introduced the development situation of provincial transportation, the "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan," and key projects for 2026. By focusing on market-oriented financing, it continues to leverage the government-bank-enterprise cooperation platform to provide solid support for the high-quality development of Anhui transportation during the "Fifteenth Five-Year Plan."

　　Since the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan," Anhui Province has completed transportation fixed asset investments exceeding 700 billion yuan, which is 1.4 times the planned amount. The total mileage of the comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network has surpassed 250,000 kilometers, ranking in the top echelon nationwide. The total mileage of expressways has exceeded 7,000 kilometers, ranking first in the Yangtze River Delta, achieving a historic leap from "county-to-county access" to "county-town access." The total mileage of high-grade waterways has reached 2,313 kilometers, ranking fourth nationwide. The volume of road and waterway freight has consistently remained at the forefront nationwide for many years. The reform of the investment and financing system has achieved remarkable results, successfully issuing two transportation REITs with a total scale of 142.63 billion yuan, ranking second nationwide. The "Wantu Loan" brand has accumulated credit of 267.58 billion yuan, with 191.98 billion yuan disbursed. The loan balance of the transportation industry in the province's banking sector has reached 667.5 billion yuan, doubling compared to the end of the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan," forming a nationally recognized "Anhui experience" in transportation investment and financing.

　　Currently, the policy dividends of national ultra-long-term special bonds and new policy-based financial instruments are overlapping, and financing costs are at historical lows. The task of building a strong transportation province in Anhui is heavy, investment demand is strong, project prospects are promising, and transportation investment and financing are entering a "golden window period."

　　The meeting required focusing on three key areas: First, creating a "diversified financing" fund matrix, promoting the "special bond+" "Wantu Loan+" "REITs+" model, and extending financing channels to multiple fields. Second, stimulating the vitality of social capital, adhering to the principle of "non-prohibition means entry," implementing the new PPP mechanism, and encouraging social capital to participate in emerging fields such as low-altitude transportation and smart transportation. Third, leveraging the government-bank-enterprise platform, planning projects well, improving the project reserve library, building a "direct access" channel, and optimizing a trustworthy and fair investment and financing environment.

　　At the meeting, relevant leaders from some municipal transportation bureaus, financial institutions, and investment enterprises spoke. During the signing ceremony, 16 units focused on expressway franchise rights bidding, transportation key project financing, and bank-enterprise cooperation, signing agreements on-site with a total amount of 255.425 billion yuan. This meeting concentrated on promoting 21 "Double Recruitment and Double Introduction" projects with a total investment of 170.553 billion yuan; released 59 key transportation construction projects with a total investment of 319.453 billion yuan, debt financing demand of 252.3 billion yuan, and 2026 financing demand of 49.971 billion yuan, covering multiple fields such as expressways, ordinary national and provincial roads, and water transport, providing a broad investment space for social capital.

　　After the meeting, the Anhui Provincial Development and Reform Commission conducted a special guidance session on real estate investment trusts in the infrastructure field. The Anhui Provincial Transportation Development Alliance also held a presentation on product development in industry-finance collaboration. China Bank Fund, the Anhui Branch of the Agricultural Development Bank, Guoyuan Securities, and the Provincial Transportation Holding Group respectively conducted special guidance on public REITs, "Wantu Loan," merger and acquisition policies, and asset securitization, providing precise professional financing guidance for participating units.

　　The convening of this connection meeting has built a solid platform for information exchange, resource sharing, and win-win cooperation among government, banks, and enterprises. Next, the Anhui Provincial Department of Transportation will continue to improve the regular connection mechanism, optimize the business environment, and coordinate to solve bottlenecks and difficulties in project advancement. Various financial institutions will increase credit support and product innovation efforts, allowing financial resources to precisely irrigate transportation development. Various enterprises will seize development opportunities and actively participate in transportation project construction. The three parties will work together to create a new ecosystem for transportation investment and financing, jointly writing the transportation answer sheet for the Anhui chapter of Chinese-style modernization.
