Weilai high speed railway makes Jinan to Yantai province for 18 minutes! The number of trains will be increased, and Pingdu will become a new hub

On Saturday, the Weilai high-speed railway, which connects Weifang and Yanwei areas, was officially laid. After completion, Yantai in Jinan will realize a two-hour life circle. At the same time, as there is no need to consider the number of trains departing from Qingdao, the number of trains from Yanwei to Jinan will be greatly increased. At the same time, Pingdu, Changyi and other places will also build on the wings of high-speed rail to gain development opportunities together with Jinan and Yanwei. After the completion of

, not only the distance will be shortened, but also the number of

jiyanwei trains will be increased. Although Jinan and Yantai have been connected by Jiqing high speed railway and Qingrong railway, at present, the train from Jinan east to Yantai South will take 2 hours and 37 minutes at most, only 2 trains a day. After the opening of Weilai high speed railway, the number of trains will increase. Jinan The "two hour life circle" with Yantai will also be realized.

"after the opening of Weilai high speed railway, the minimum time from Yanwei area to Weifang will be shortened by 18 minutes, because the trains in Yanwei area will not have to detour Jiaozhou north station, but can reach Jinan in a straight line, and the transportation pressure of Jiaoji passenger dedicated line will also be effectively relieved, and the specific shortening time needs to be determined in the later operation test." Yang Shusheng, chief engineer of Shandong Weilai High Speed Railway Co., Ltd. "The speed of Jiaoji passenger dedicated line is relatively slow. After the opening of Weilai high-speed railway, the trains from Weifang to Yanwei can go through the high-speed channel." Although

is only 18 minutes shorter, the significance of Weilai high-speed railway is much greater than this simple figure. Yang Shusheng introduced that in the past, no matter Qingdao or Yanwei area in the eastern city, if you want to reach Jinan or go west again, you need to bypass Jiaozhou and go north to Jiaoji railway. "Whether it's Jiaoji passenger dedicated railway or Jinan Qingdao high speed railway, the line from Weifang to Jinan is very fixed. We can only consider building a more convenient railway east of Weifang." At present, due to the need to ensure the number of trains departing from Qingdao, the number of trains from Yanwei to the central and western cities of Shandong Province is limited. After the opening of Weilai high-speed railway, the number of trains to Yanwei will increase, and the travel of citizens along the line will be more convenient. There are four stations in the

Weilai high speed railway, of which Pingdu north is a new station. As the largest county-level city in Shandong Province, Pingdu is also the "hub" connecting Qingdao, Weifang and Yantai. But there is no direct train from Pingdu to Jinan and other places. You have to change in Qingdao. After the completion of Pingdu north railway station, it will be the first high-speed railway station in Pingdu. At the same time, the travel of citizens in Pingdu and Changyi will be more convenient, which will also promote the development of small and medium-sized cities along the line. Just after the completion of the

high speed railway, the

track laying locomotive was transferred to Laixi

Laixi super large bridge, which is located on Weilai high speed railway. At present, the construction of the bridge has begun. At the site, with the cooperation of the tractor and the track laying car, two 500m rails were slowly pushed into place. Several workers were busy on both sides of the track. Some of them placed rollers, some took "iron Forks" to knock the rollers to ensure that the rails were in the right position. The track laying staff of China Railway 14th Bureau said: "every 8 meters, a roller needs to be placed to cooperate with the traction machine to deliver the track, so as to reduce the friction force. A black pad is placed under the track to ensure that the ballastless track plate under the track will not be worn and play a fixed role." At present, a wz500 type track laying locomotive is used in the

Weilai high speed railway, which has just finished the track laying task of Lunan high speed railway. At present, the track laying is carried out from the North Laixi station to Weifang direction. The track laying is 6km per day, and the next station will reach Pingdu. In the later stage, a track laying locomotive will be added. The daily track laying can reach 12 kilometers. It is expected to complete the track laying task by the end of May 2020. The main line of

Weilai high speed railway is 126 km long, with a design speed of 350 km / h. Weifang north station, Changyi south station, Pingdu north station and Laixi Northwest Station will be set up. The construction of the whole line will start on January 1, 2018, and it is planned to be open to traffic by the end of 2020. Luan Xingjun, project director of Weilai high speed railway of China Railway 14th Bureau, introduced that in addition to the earthquake fracture zone, the track of Weilai high speed railway is laid with ballastless track. The 500m long track laying process has a special construction environment with high quality and accuracy requirements. After the long track falls into the groove, a series of works, such as unit rail joint welding, stress relief and seamless track locking, will be carried out. After each process is completed, the track will be fine adjusted, accepted and linked It can be put into operation after joint commissioning.
