The total length of China's highway network has reached 5.28 million km, an official said on Tuesday. Zhou Rongfeng, an official with the Ministry of Transport, underscored the importance of strengthening highway maintenance and management, as the highway is among the most widely used means of transportation, with the most extensive coverage and the highest number of passengers. China has set up a national highway network that consists of expressways, trunk roads, and rural roads.
