Construction of green corridor of Hanhai Gobi railway started

On March 10, on both sides of the east line of Heshuo station of South Xinjiang Railway, more than 50 cadres and workers dug tree pits with mechanical planing to prepare for the upcoming seedling planting. At present, the construction of green corridor of Hanhai Gobi railway has entered the stage of seedling planting preparation, and it will enter the stage of seedling planting in spring from March 14. At that time, both sides of the Xinjiang Railway crossing the Hanhai Gobi will be decorated with green "ribbons" by eyeful vegetation.

Carrying out the construction of green corridor is an important measure to thoroughly implement the policies and guidelines of the Party Central Committee and the State Council on land greening and ecological civilization construction, an important measure for the railway to serve the economic and social development of Xinjiang, an inevitable requirement to ensure the long-term stability of railway transportation production, and a concrete embodiment of the enthusiasm of the cadres and workers to "build homes by hand".

This green corridor mainly refers to the protective forest belt on both sides of Xinjiang Railway. Most of the lines under the jurisdiction of China Railway Urumqi Bureau Group Co., Ltd. are located in desert and Gobi, and the raging sandstorm directly affects the safety of railway transportation. Since the "thousand mile green corridor" project was started in 2000, railway cadres and staff have planted trees on both sides of Lanxin railway, Nanjiang railway and Beijiang railway for many years, with a total greening length of 1084 km. With the passage of time, due to the aging of green equipment, broken protective forest belts, dead trees and other phenomena are prominent, and only 451 kilometers of green corridor are left.

At present, the total length of Xinjiang Railway business mileage is 6838.702 km. In order to continuously promote the construction of "thousand mile green corridor" and ensure the safe production of railway transportation, this year, the construction of green corridor of Hanhai Gobi railway was launched.

In accordance with the long-term plan, Urumqi bureau group company takes the construction of green corridor as an important work and focuses on it for a long time. It has established a leading group for the construction of green corridor, under which there are three working groups in the south, North and east of Xinjiang to carry out the work, define the stage task objectives and accelerate the overall progress. They re strengthen the existing protective forest, make up the broken belt area of the protective forest, and maintain the water way, drip irrigation and other equipment; in the area with serious sand damage, they adopt the form of well drilling and drip irrigation to plant drought resistant and salt resistant vegetation; in the area with people, all units use the existing water source to plant the protective forest. At the same time, all stations along the railway are carrying out greening and beautifying work in spring simultaneously.

From the end of March, all the staff of Urumqi bureau group company went to the battle to plant trees and trees. Each unit allocated corresponding guarantee sections to do a good job in greening planting and maintenance. At the same time, it increased the scientific and technological content of afforestation and built a green corridor to play a good role in wind prevention, sand fixation and flood control in railway transportation.
