First, Deputy Director Liu Yang of the Guizhou Provincial Department of Transport extended congratulations on behalf of the department for the convening of this conference on highway inspection and maintenance technologies in mountainous regions, and delivered an important speech. Deputy Director Liu pointed out that Guizhou’s highway maintenance and management work currently faces significant challenges. After highways are built, the key task for the transportation sector in Guizhou is to ensure these highways are well-managed, properly maintained, and efficiently operated—thus consolidating the achievements made in recent years in transportation infrastructure development and fully leveraging the critical role of transportation in driving economic and social progress. All practitioners in the highway inspection and maintenance industry must deeply recognize the importance of maintenance work as well as the existing shortcomings, fully appreciate the significance of advanced maintenance technologies, and actively promote the marketization of highway maintenance. At the same time, Deputy Director Liu expressed earnest hopes to the experts and delegates attending this conference, urging them to employ scientific methods and technologies to promptly identify and address issues in maintenance management, thereby delivering a satisfactory outcome for Guizhou’s economic and social development in the new era and ensuring safe and secure travel for the people.
