Four high-speed railways, including the Xiongan-Shangqiu section of the Beijing-Hong Kong high-speed railway, will be put into operation on September 28.

Our reporter, Beijing, September 26 (Reporter Liu Jing) The reporter learned from the China State Railway Group Co., Ltd. today that the Beijing-Hong Kong high-speed railway section from Xiong'an to Shangqiu, the Xi'an-Chongqing high-speed railway section from Xi'an to Ankang, the Yichang-Xingshan high-speed railway, and the Harbin-Yichun high-speed railway will be put into operation on September 28. The four lines span north to south and run from east to west, covering the four major regions of North China, Northeast China, Northwest China, and Central China. With steel arteries of different speeds of 350 kilometers and 250 kilometers per hour, they break regional time and space barriers and allow many places to officially enter the high-speed rail era.

Four high-speed railways will be opened on the same day, which will not only increase the mileage of the road network, but also reshape the regional geographical spatial pattern. From the North China Plain to the northern tip of the motherland, from the depths of the Qinling Mountains to the mountains of western Hubei, high-speed rail is connecting cities and counties, hubs and hinterlands at a faster speed, promoting regional development from "point axis" to "network", and providing strong transportation support for coordinated regional development and Chinese-style modernization.

The centralized operation of four new high-speed rail lines is a vivid epitome of the continuous improvement of my country's high-speed rail network and the upgrading of transportation infrastructure. From the north-south main line to strengthen the network, to the expansion of the northeastern border road network, from the interconnection inside and outside the Qinling Mountains, to the optimization of the Yangtze River Basin channel, the four new lines each perform their own duties and support each other, building a multi-regional, multi-level, high-efficiency modern high-speed rail network.
