武汉至重庆段是长江黄金水道承上启下、"畅中游、延上游"的关键节点航道，改造后有 利于加强长江上、中、下游地区的经济联系与协同发展，推动长江经济带高质量发展。沿江 地区工业、贸易等产业快速发展，对水运通道的容量和效率要求不断提高。原有水深限制了 船舶吨位和载货量，改造后水深提升至4.5米，5000吨级船舶可常年直达重庆，大幅提高航 道通航能力，满足沿江地区日益增长的货物运输需求。 "十四五"期间，长江航道部门先后对宜昌至荆州段、岳阳至武汉段主要采取养护疏浚方 式；对重庆朝天门至涪陵段、荆州至岳阳段则通过航道整治工程实现水深提升。 12月29日，长江干线武汉至重庆段4.5米水深航道实现全线贯通。今后，5000吨级船舶 可常年直达重庆。 水深是航道的"生命线"，一寸水深一寸金。航道水深每提升0.1米，船舶可多装载约200 吨货物，单船物流成本降低约14%，利润相应提升12%。 武汉至重庆段航道全长1277.5公里，是国家综合立体交通网的重要组成部分。 长江航道 局新闻发言人渠钊介绍，重庆至武汉段分为四段。重庆朝天门至涪陵段，原水深约为3.5 米；宜昌至荆州段、荆州至岳阳段、岳阳至武汉段，原水深在2.8米至4.2米之 ...
