BEIJING, Feb. 11 (Xinhua) -- China's road logistics price index went up in January, industry data shows.
The index came in at 104 last month, up 0.92 percent over a month earlier, according to a survey jointly conducted by the China Federation of Logistics and Purchasing and the Guangdong Lin'an Logistics Group.

The sub-index for full truckload logistics price, which mainly measures bulk commodity and regional transportation, rose 2.6 percent over one year earlier to 103.7.
