Before the start of construction of the railway, a feasibility study is required to determine the feasibility of the project and the construction plan. Whether the feasibility study can be approved or not is related to whether the state or local government allows the construction of the railway. If a railway can't even be approved for a feasibility study, let alone start construction. Therefore, the feasibility study is very important, and its approval progress will also affect the preliminary design approval progress and even the start of construction.
This article mainly introduces the recent situation of the feasibility study of 5 railway projects, which have advanced to a certain extent, and one of them has even been approved for restoration, waiting for these years to finally welcome the dawn of construction!
Tongji Railway
The high-speed railway is the Tongji Railway, which has been planned for more than ten years, although the prerequisites for the feasibility study have been completed in the past two years, but due to the planning adjustment of the Phoenix Scenic Area in the Hunan section, the feasibility study has not been approved. However, Guizhou Province recently said that the feasibility study report of the Tongji railway has been approved by the state, which also means that an important stage of the construction of the railway has made a breakthrough.
The Tongji Railway has been included in the mainland's nearly two five-year railway plans, and the feasibility study has been approved, so that the project has finally seen the dawn of construction. In terms of the specific construction plan, the total length of the line is 52.1 kilometers, including 19.1 kilometers in Guizhou and 33 kilometers in Hunan, with a total of 3 stations in Tongren, Tongren North and Phoenix Ancient City, with a design speed of 250 km/h and a construction period of 4 years. After the completion of the future, the Shanghai-Kunming high-speed rail corridor and the Hunan high-speed rail corridor can be connected, which will alleviate the transportation pressure of the regional road network.
The Quanxia Zhangzhou Intercity R1 Line has started the feasibility study evaluation work, which will lay the foundation for the subsequent feasibility study approval of the project. The line starts from Quanzhou East Railway Station in Quanzhou City, passes through Xiamen City to Jintang Station of Jinfeng Development Zone, Zhangzhou City, with a total length of 175.13km, of which the Quanzhou section is 71.5km long, the Xiamen section is 53.4km long, and the Zhangzhou section is 50.2km long.
Training Camp Shintaka
The supplementary feasibility study of the Hefei-Suqian railway has been reviewed by the China Railway Group, and the supplementary feasibility study has passed the review, which means that the project is one step closer to the approval of the feasibility study and even the start of construction.
Although this high-speed railway is a key project in Jiangsu Province, in the specific work arrangement of key railway projects in 2024 introduced by China Railway Group, the Hesu high-speed railway belongs to the planned new high-speed rail project in the preliminary work project of national key dispatching in 2024.
The total length of the Hesu high-speed railway is about 59.086 kilometers, the line starts from the Yangbei Line in Suqian City in the north, and sets up Sihong North Station along the way, and connects to Sixian East Station in Anhui, with a speed target value of 350 km/h. This high-speed railway is at the north end of the line, the main line will be connected with the Weifang to Suqian high-speed railway under construction, and in the southern section of the line, it will be connected to the high-speed rail from Hefei to Sixian under construction, which can form a high-speed rail fast channel connecting northern Anhui, northern Jiangsu and Shandong Peninsula in the future.
Guangyuan-Bazhong Railway
The Guangyuan-Bazhong railway expansion and reconstruction project is still in the feasibility study bidding stage, and the bidding scope includes the completion of the preliminary test and the preparation of the feasibility study report, and the corresponding approval documents have been obtained. In addition, the project also launched a two-stage survey and design tender for preliminary design and construction drawing design.
Guangyuan-Bazhong railway expansion and reconstruction project is located in the northeast of Sichuan Province in Guangyuan and Bazhong City, the main line is about 161.6km long, the reconstruction section is 116.4km long, the new section is 45.2km long, the line starts from Guangyuan City Zoumaling Station in the west, passes through Zhaohua District of Guangyuan City, Wangcang County, Nanjiang County of Bazhong City, and ends at Bazhong Station in Bazhong City. The previous project has completed the pre-feasibility study of the pre-feasibility study of the scheme with a speed of 160km per hour, focusing on freight and taking into account passenger transportation.
The project is expected to start construction in 2025, and after completion, it can improve the transportation efficiency of the line, give full play to the benefits of railway transportation and the formation of a large rail-water combined transport channel in northeast Sichuan and even northwest China.
Baocheng Railway Bus Transformation Project
In addition, the feasibility study and repair of the Baocheng Railway Transit Transformation Project has passed the review of the China Railway Group, and the line in the "Chengdu-Chongqing Twin-City Economic Circle Multi-level Rail Transit Plan" has a main line operating length of about 49 kilometers (including about 25 kilometers of the existing Baocheng Line and about 24 kilometers of the new main line). 6 new stations including Wufuqiao, Tangjiasi, Sichuanhua, Railway Port, Chengxiang Ancient City and Jintang South, using the existing Chengdu (North) Station, rebuilding 3 Tianhuizhen Station and Xindu Station, the construction period is planned to be 30 months.
After the completion of the line, it can solve the problem that Jintang County and Qingbaijiang District have no urban rail transit to connect the central urban area, and will provide large-volume, fast and commuting railway bus operation services for the areas along the line.
