CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- Workers were busy stepping up the construction of the Qianqiuyan Two-lane Great Bridge on the second Chengdu-Chongqing High-speed Railway on September 7. The great bridge, built by China Railway No.4 Engineering Group, is located in Bishan District and covers a length of 1,320 meters. It is expected that the first hollow pier of the bridge will be topped by the end of September.

With a main line of 292 kilometers and a design speed of 350 km/h, the Second Chengdu-Chongqing High-speed Railway starts at Chongqingbei Station, passes through Chongqing’s Yubei District, Shapingba District, Bishan District, Tongliang District, Dazu District, and Sichuan’s Ziyang City and Chengdu City in a westerly direction, and ends at Chengdu Station, constituting a significant part of the riverside railways of China’s high-speed railway network (eight vertical and eight horizontal high-speed railways). On its completion, the Second Chengdu-Chongqing High-speed Railway will greatly increase the capacity and service quality of Chengdu-Chongqing transport and offer passengers a more convenient travel experience.
