铁路是国家基础设施的重要组成部分,铁路建设对综合运输体系的形成以及城市化和人民生活都具有长期的重要影响。长期未得到应有发展的我国铁路加快了建设步伐,这是令人欣喜的,但在目前的铁路建设中也暴露出一些需要重视和思考的问题,其中有些涉及到重大战略决策。 The railway is an important part of the national infrastructure. The construction of the railway has a long-term important influence on the formation of an integrated transport system and on the urbanization and people’s livelihood. It is gratifying to note that our country’s railway, which has not been properly developed for a long time, has accelerated its pace of construction. However, some issues that need to be valued and thought are exposed in the current railway construction. Some of them involve major strategic decisions.
