The high-speed rail network will be more closely woven. It will be more convenient for Shanghai citizens to visit all parts of the Yangtze River Delta

Xinmin Evening News (reporter Jin Zhigang) China's high-speed railway construction continues to make rapid progress. At present, there are many lines in the country that are preparing for the goal of opening operation at the end of the year. Among them, there are three new lines in the Yangtze River Delta, namely Xuhuai salt railway, Dongji Huaian section of Lianzhen railway, and Shanghe Hangzhou high-speed railway Shanghe section.

Yangtze River Delta is a relatively dense area of high-speed rail in China. At present, the main high-speed rail lines starting from Shanghai are Beijing Shanghai high-speed rail, Shanghai Nanjing intercity high-speed rail and Shanghai Kunming high-speed rail. With the opening of new lines in Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Anhui Province, the high-speed rail network in the Yangtze River Delta will be "woven" more closely. Starting from Shanghai, it can reach all parts of the Yangtze River Delta and even further. District. For example, after the opening of the Hangzhou Huangshan high speed railway, it is much more convenient for Shanghai citizens to go to Qiandao Lake, Huangshan and other places than before. At the end of this year,

may become a node of high-speed rail in the Yangtze River Delta. In Jiangsu Province, the Xuhuai salt railway and the Dongji Huai'an section of Lianzhen railway have started joint commissioning and joint test, and are expected to be ready for operation by the end of the year. Xuhuai salt railway is one of the most important railway arteries in Jiangsu Province. It starts from Xuzhou, the thoroughfare of five provinces in the west, passes through Suqian, Huai'an and Yancheng in the East. There are 10 stations in the whole line, with a design speed of 250km / h. The design speed of the section from Dongji to Huai'an of Lianzhen railway is 250km / h, which is connected to Dongji station of Lianyan railway and meets with Xuhuai salt railway at Huai'an east station. The opening of the two railways will rewrite the history that Huai'an and Suqian are not connected to high-speed rail. So far, all 13 cities under the jurisdiction of Jiangsu Province will enter the era of high-speed rail cars.

because there are many cooperative projects in Huai'an, Liu Xiaoqian, who works in a design company in Shencheng, often commutes between Shanghai and Huai'an. "It takes about six hours to drive from Shanghai; she has also taken a plane, but she has to go to Pudong airport. Although the flight time is only about one hour, it takes almost half a day to add up the time before and after." For example, it is necessary to transfer by train to Xuzhou. Now there are only two regular trains at night and in the early morning. It takes seven or eight hours from Shanghai to Huai'an, and this mode of transportation is not popular.

and when the Xuhuai salt railway is opened, it will save more time by train. Even if there is no direct train, it may only take more than three hours to take the high-speed railway from Shanghai Hongqiao Station to Xuzhou, and then the d-head bullet train from Xuzhou to Huai'an. However, this route may not be the most convenient. In the future, it will be faster to take Shanghai Nantong Yancheng Huai'an railway when the Shanghai Stock connect railway is opened.

in addition, another high-speed rail line, Shanghe Hangzhou high-speed rail Shanghe section, has also started joint commissioning and joint test, and is planned to be ready for opening by the end of November. Shanghe Hangzhou high speed railway starts from Shangqiu, Henan Province, passes through Bozhou, Fuyang, Huainan, Hefei, Chaohu, Wuhu, Xuancheng and Huzhou, Zhejiang Province, and ends in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. It has 29 stations and a design speed of 350 kilometers per hour. The Shanghe Hangzhou high speed railway is an important transportation trunk line that effectively connects the Central Plains, the Yangtze River Huaihe River Delta and the Yangtze River Delta. After opening to traffic, Hefei will form a traffic circle of half an hour to one hour with the surrounding cities in the province. From Hefei to Hangzhou, Shangqiu can realize one-day round trip.
