It was learned from the province's major railway projects in 2022 and the "opening red" work promotion meeting in the first quarter that this year the province will strive to complete the railway construction investment of more than 30 billion yuan, realize the completion and opening of the Xiangyang to Wanzhou section of the Zhengwan high-speed railway, the Huanghuang high-speed railway and the Wuhan East Railway Station in the first half of the year, and complete the adjustment project of the first phase of the Qianchuan Line and Line 16 of the metro. It is expected that this year, the province will add about 370 kilometers of high-speed rail mileage, the total mileage of high-speed rail will reach about 2060 kilometers, and the new urban rail transit operating mileage will be 20 kilometers.

This year is a key year for the implementation of the "14th Five-Year Plan" of our province, and it is also a year for accelerating the development of railway construction in our province. According to the goals of this year's railway construction work, our province will focus on promoting the construction of 12 continuous construction projects such as the West Tenth High-speed Railway and the Wuhan-Yichang section of the High-speed Railway along the Yangtze River, to ensure that the railway will complete the investment of more than 30 billion yuan throughout the year and create a new annual investment high. In the first quarter, it ensured the completion of the investment of 7.5 billion yuan and achieved a "good start". Accelerate the construction of 10 continuous construction projects such as Wuhan Urban Rail Transit Line 12 and Line 19, and continue to maintain a large investment.

In addition, our province will focus on promoting the start of the "3 + 7" railway project, and strive to make substantial progress in the preliminary work of the three projects such as the Xiangjing high-speed railway, the Hewu section of the high-speed railway along the river, and the Wuhan hub through line in the first quarter, and start construction in the first half of the year. Promote the start of construction of all seven special railway lines by the end of November.

In order to achieve a good continuation of the project, our province will strive for the relevant state departments to give positive arrangements for the preliminary work of the Yichang to Fuling section of the high-speed railway along the river, the Xiantao to Honghu to Jianli railway, the Yichang to Changde section of the Hunan high-speed railway, and the Fuyang to Huanggang section of the Beijing-Kowloon high-speed railway, and approve the adjustment of the fourth phase of the construction plan of Wuhan urban rail transit as soon as possible and start the implementation.
