Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway injects new power into regional economic development

On October 28, the first g55543 EMU train was sent out from Zhengzhou east railway station, and Zhengzhou administration section of Zhengzhou Wanzhou railway entered the test operation stage, marking the countdown of the opening of the line. (Oct. 29, China Association of Chronicles)

it is understood that the whole section of Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway starts from Zhengzhou in Henan Province and ends at Wanzhou in Chongqing, with a total length of 818 kilometers and a speed of 350 kilometers per hour. The whole line is expected to open to traffic in 2022. After the completion and opening to traffic of Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway, it will become a fast passenger transport channel connecting Southwest China, central China and North China. It is of great significance to supplement and improve the "four vertical and four horizontal" passenger dedicated line network of China's railway and build a modern comprehensive transportation system along the Yangtze River economic belt As a fast passenger transport channel connecting Southwest China, central China and North China, the construction of Zhengzhou Wanzhou high-speed railway undoubtedly brings great convenience to the people along the line. Before that, there was a lack of ground fast track from Central Plains to southwest China. The ordinary train from Zhengzhou to Chongqing took 20 hours and 5 minutes at most and 13 hours and 18 minutes at the fastest. After Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway is opened to traffic, the time required to take the train from Zhengzhou to Chongqing will be shortened to 4 hours, and the history of no high speed railway in Nanyang and Pingdingshan will be ended, making Nanyang, Pingdingshan and other areas in Southwest Henan included in Zhengzhou's "one hour traffic circle"

similarly, convenient transportation also adds new vitality to the rapid development of regional economy. Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway is an important part of the "meter" shaped railway network in Henan Province, which is the filling of the high-speed railway network in Western Hubei Province. After the opening and operation of Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway, it not only promotes the construction of the modern comprehensive transportation system of the Yangtze River Economic belt, but also drives the resource sharing among the cities in the region, so as to develop the railway belt and the surrounding area of the city, so as to form the complementary economic advantages among regions It is of great significance to promote regional development and speed up poverty alleviation

traffic is the lifeblood of economic development, and speed is the wing of regional takeoff. In recent years, with the rapid and healthy development of China's high-speed railway industry, the construction of high-speed railway plays an important role in the rapid rise of regional economy and balanced and full development. I firmly believe that after the completion and opening to traffic of Zhengzhou Wanzhou high speed railway, it will make more and greater new contributions to the economic development of cities along the line and people's convenient travel.
