FOURTEEN Shanghai World Expo construction projects are now underway throughout Minhang District. The constructions with a budget of more than 250 billion yuan (US$36.6 billion) will reshape the district's future.
They include high-speed railways, expressways, elevated roads, bridges over the Huangpu River, logistics centers and the Hongqiao Transit Hub.
A lot of roads and highways are currently under construction to supplement the transit hub, which combines bus stations, train stations, an airport and Metro stations.
The Jiamin Highway from Wusong Port and linking to the Huqingping Road will be turned into a 10-lane highway and its lower section will become a two-way eight-lane road.
The Beizhai Road is going to become a two-way six-lane highway and Caobao Road will be expanded into eight lanes, with six fast lanes.
The A8 Expressway expansion project started on May 17; an elevated road will be set up to link the A9 Expressway and Qixin and Beizhai roads; the construction of A15 Expressway, Beijing-Shanghai high-speed railway, the Minpu Bridge and Minpu Bridge II have entered critical phases.
To make way for the Expo, in Minhang more than 2,000 companies and factories and about 50,000 people have been relocated.
