10月1日，南川至涪陵铁路建成通车。南川至涪陵铁路南起重庆南川，北至涪陵，正线全长78.29公里，是重庆市外环铁路网络的重要组成部分。南涪铁路的建成，结束了重庆南川、涪陵两地之间不通铁路的历史，在渝黔、渝怀铁路之间形成环线，建起渝东南地区铁路运输新通道。南涪铁路设计时速120公里/小时，通车后先开通货运，客运暂不开通，设计货运能力达每年1359万吨。该线路设5个车站，南川、南川东、水江、鸭江、涪陵，均已开通货运业务，货主可以在以上几个站点办理货运业务。南涪铁路的通车，为沿线的南川、武隆、涪陵三个区县带来了新的发展机遇，同时将拉动三地经济的跨越式发展，让涪陵打通铁路、公路和水路的物流联运成为可能。
