Shenzhen ports in Shekou and Chiwan are planning to strengthen their rail freight links with China's western cities by setting up containerised cargo services to Chengdu, Chongqing and Kunming, a senior Shekou port official has confirmed.

Erik Yim, managing director of Shekou Container Terminal (SCT), said the new railway freight services could start next year and would augment services between the two western Shenzhen ports and Changsha.
