Qingdao's first low-altitude island logistics route was launched on Thursday, realizing two-way transportation of goods between Jimiya Wharf and Lingshan Island over an 18-kilometer voyage in just 10 minutes.
In the past, the logistics transportation of Lingshan Island mainly relied on boats, and it was often suspended during heavy fog and high waves. The opening of the low-altitude logistics route has expanded and enriched the application scenarios of the local low-altitude economy and also brought convenience to the lives of island residents.
