Shanghai advances low-altitude transport with test flights, new routes

This test flight route also marks the start of the construction of a low-altitude transportation network in the YRD region. Plans are underway for additional low-altitude passenger transport routes connecting Shanghai's Lin-gang Special Area, Jiading and Songjiang districts, Jiaxing in Zhejiang province, and Kunshan in Jiangsu province. According to the Pudong district government, over 100 helipads for helicopters and eVTOL (electric vertical take-off and landing) aircraft are set to be built across 45 cities, counties and districts in the region.
