Yan’an tunnel to reopen after renovation
THE Yan’an Road E. Tunnel will reopen to traffic from December 26 after a nine-month renovation project on one of the busiest passages under the Huangpu River.
This means that traffic from Pudong to Puxi, which has been blocked since February, will be open to drivers again.
The renovation work included upgrading the lighting and the ventilation system. A new fire alarm and sprinkle system have also been installed.
This was the first major overhaul of the tunnel after it was put in use in 1988.
The northern section of the tunnel will be temporarily closed for adjusting traffic signs. Vehicles from Puxi to Pudong passing through that section will be switched to the tunnel’s southern section from December 19.
Meanwhile, all the public buses that were rerouted due to the renovation will have their original routes restored apart from Bus Tunnel Line 9 and Bus Shangchuan Zhuanxian because of traffic restriction on Fujian Road S.
