District to spend US$944m on improving roads and bridges

Jiading plans to spend 6.15 billion yuan (US$944 million) on road construction, including opening up of the end road and road connections between districts.

Basic construction of the Jiading-Minhang viaduct was completed recently and the whole project is due to be completed at the end of the year. The viaduct will connect Jiading central city and Hong-qiao Transport Hub and people able to drive from Jiading to Hongqiao airport in 15 minutes.

Jiading’s “four vertical and four horizontal” urban expressways and “five vertical and six horizontal” arterial roads are planned to be finished within 5 years. The road network density reached 3 kilometers per square kilometer and at a higher level in the suburbs.

Chenxiang road tunnel and the S5 ramp project have been included in the 13th 5-year plan, which will bring convenience to the people living in eastern part of Nanxiang.

Concerning the site setting of Line 11 and surrounding commercial facilities, the Chenxiang project will have an upper path as the regular urban road and the lower path as an expressway.

Crossing the Suzhou River which separates Jiading and Minhang should take just a few minutes; but in fact, it takes half an hour because the Huajiang road bridge is too narrow. This year, the districts will get together to open up new roads and broaden the bridge.
