The China Transportation Services Index (CTSI) stood at 153.8 points from January to February, up 4.4 percent year-on-year, according to the China Academy of Transportation Sciences.
The sub-index for cargo transport reached 188.2 points in the period, 4.1 percent higher from the same period last year.
