Qingdao to build an important hub of railway coastal passage Weilai high speed railway to be opened to traffic next year

To build an important hub of the national railway coastal passage, the mileage of the railway in Qingdao will reach 666km next year, on November 26, 2016. With the opening of the Rizhao Linyi Qufu section of the Lunan (Juran) high speed railway, and the circular connection with Jiqing high speed railway, Jiaoji Passenger Dedicated Railway, Qingyan Yantie railway and Beijing Shanghai high speed railway, the "one ring and two cores" railway in Shandong Province will be built. The structure of the high-speed railway network is more perfect. The circular high-speed railway network with Jinan, Qingdao, Linyi, Rizhao and other regions as its fulcrum greatly shortens the travel time of the people along the line. For the first time, Qingdao has opened a direct high-speed railway to Linyi. The one-way time is shortened to less than 2 hours. It takes about 100 minutes from Qingdao north to Linyi North high-speed railway and 66 minutes from Qingdao West to Linyi North high-speed railway The increasing accessibility of

railway network is a microcosm of the rapid development of Qingdao railway construction. The reporter learned from the Municipal Transportation Bureau that in recent years, with the strong support of the railway department, Qingdao railway has entered the stage of high-speed development, and has basically reversed the trend of railway terminal. At present, there are 11 railways in Qingdao (Jiaoji railway, Jiaoji passenger dedicated railway, Jiaoxin railway, Lanyan railway, Jiaohuang railway, dalailong railway, Haiqing railway, Qingrong intercity railway, Jiqing high speed railway, Qingyan railway, Dongjiakou port railway), with a total mileage of 576km. Among them, high-speed railway is 138 kilometers, fast railway is 154 kilometers and ordinary speed railway is 284 kilometers. After the completion of the Weilai high speed railway under construction, the railway mileage in Qingdao will reach 666km At present, with the development of transportation infrastructure, Qingdao is launching an important national coastal railway hub construction battle. The key objectives are: to build an important hub of the national railway coastal passage, quickly integrate into the Yangtze River Delta city group and the hinterland of central China in the south, connect Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and the Yellow River Basin in the northwest, and connect Yantai, Weihai and Bohai high-speed rail passage in the North

in accordance with the offensive plan, expanding the high-speed railway channel and striving for the operation of urban (suburban) trains have become the key tasks of the railway hub construction. Since this year, positive progress has been made in these two tasks A 6031 a 6031 Weilai high speed railway is another important support for Qingdao to expand the high-speed railway channel after Ji Qing high speed railway. Weilai high speed railway starts from Weifang North Station of Jiqing high speed railway and ends at Laixi North Station of Qingrong intercity railway. The total length of the main line is 126 km, the designed driving speed is 350 km / h, and it passes through Pingdu City and Laixi City in Qingdao about 60 km and 30 km respectively. The project will strive to be completed and opened to traffic by 2020, which will significantly improve the capacity of passenger transport channels in the northern part of Jiaodong Peninsula and improve the rapid railway network of Shandong Province. At that time, the train can enter Jinan Qingdao high speed railway from Pingdu and Laixi via Weilai high speed railway, leading to Jinan and Beijing; enter Qingdao Rongcheng Intercity Railway via Weilai high speed railway, leading to the main urban area of Qingdao. After the completion of the project, the history of Pingdu City's non high speed railway will be ended. It only takes 55 minutes for Pingdu to Jinan, 2 and a half hours to Beijing, and 43 minutes for Pingdu to enter Qingdao north railway station through Qingdao Rongcheng intercity railway, so as to promote the closer and more convenient transportation between Pingdu and Qingdao

using the existing railway resources to run city (suburban) trains is a beneficial exploration for the convenience of people's travel and the expansion of urban traffic supply capacity. It is also a key task for Qingdao's traffic infrastructure construction and breakthrough in the Pingdu Laixi offensive. With the strong support of China Railway Jinan Bureau Group, from July 10, three pairs of new trains will be added from Qingdao north to Qingdao West and Dongjiakou, and the arrival and departure time will be further optimized. At present, there are 6 pairs of trains running in the section, with the transportation capacity increased by 141%, providing commuter, fast speed, large volume and all-weather railway transportation services between the eastern and western urban areas. In the future, when Jiaodong International Airport is transferred, the trains from Qingdao main urban area and West Bank urban area to Jiaodong International Airport (suburb) will be opened to meet the demand of Jiaodong International Airport. After the completion and opening of Weilai high-speed railway, Pingdu, Laixi to the main urban area of Qingdao and the urban area (suburb) of the West Bank will be opened to further shorten the North-South space-time distance of Qingdao.
