Good news!
North Cross Passage
It took nearly 10 years to build
The countdown to the opening of the whole line has begun!
At present, the eastern section of the Beiheng Passage
has entered the tunnel in the mechanical and electrical debugging with
Finishing touches on the surface road
It is expected that the end of this month will not be ground-free
The North Cross Passage including the road
The main line of the eastern section will be
It is completed and has the conditions for opening to traffic
After opening to traffic
Without traffic jams
From the easternmost Zhoujiazui Road Tunnel
Exit to the westernmost one
The Hongqiao hub only takes about half an hour
Recently, at the exit of Huangxing Road in the eastern section of the Beiheng Channel, the four big red characters of "Beiheng Channel" have been installed, and the signs and markings have also been delineated. In the tunnel, construction crews are stepping up the commissioning of mechanical and electrical equipment.
The Beiheng Passage is about 19.1 kilometers long from the Beihong Road Interchange in the Central Ring Road in the west to Neijiang Road in the east of Zhoujiazui Road, and is arranged from southwest to northeast as a whole, passing through six administrative districts: Changning District, Putuo District, Huangpu District, Jing'an District, Hongkou District and Yangpu District. It is divided into two sections, east and west, with Wen'an Road as the boundary, of which the western section is about 10.9 kilometers long. In June 2021, the western section of the Beiheng Corridor was officially opened to traffic.
The eastern section of the Beiheng Passage under construction starts from the Tianmu Road Interchange Wen'an Road junction in the west, connects with the western section that has been opened to traffic, and reaches Zhoujiazui Road and Neijiang Road in the east, with a total length of about 8.2 kilometers, and sets up multiple entrances and exits from west to east, such as Xinjian Road West, Xinjian Road East, Huangxing Road and Shuangyang Road Main Line.
According to the relevant design goals
In the case of no traffic jams
Time spent on the road
Or at least 5 percent shorter than now
Wu Huaqi, deputy general manager of the third division of Shanghai Chengtou Highway Investment (Group) Co., Ltd., said that by the end of May, it can be opened to traffic, when it can go to the Hongqiao hub in the west, and to the Pudong area through the Zhoujiazui Road tunnel in the east, from the entire Pudong to the Hongqiao hub, according to the current situation, it can be reached in half an hour to 35 minutes, which can be shortened by about half an hour compared with before.
Hou Jianfeng, chief engineer of the third division of Shanghai Chengtou Highway Group, the investor and builder, said that the eastern section of the Beiheng Corridor will be ready for traffic at the end of May, and the final mechanical and electrical system commissioning, asphalt and traffic safety construction are underway. Asphalt paving is the norm, but this time it was a special one, and the biggest challenge was to achieve extremely high positioning accuracy in a weak signal environment when trying to pave unmanned in a closed tunnel.
Underground, where there is almost no signal, two asphalt pavers and several rollers work together in an orderly manner, with no workers in the cockpit, and the asphalt is steaming, neatly paved on the concrete floor, and then compacted.
In an environment where there is no signal, how to achieve "no difference" in positioning? Meng Yuanhua, the site leader of the asphalt traffic safety project in the eastern section of the Shanghai Road and Bridge Beiheng Passage of the construction party, said that this is because the equipment is equipped with a variety of sensors, which can perceive the surrounding environment in real time, obtain detailed information about the surrounding environment, and plan the best driving path through algorithm calculation to complete the operation efficiently. The unmanned process not only improves the efficiency of manual operation by 30%, but also allows workers to avoid being in the occupational environment of paving asphalt for a long time.
Hou Jianfeng said that after the completion and opening of the main line of the eastern section, it represents the full operation of the main line of the Beiheng Passage Project, which will further improve the traffic environment along the line, alleviate the pressure of regional road traffic, provide a new fast channel between the region along the line and the Hongqiao hub, and serve the medium and long-distance arrival and departure traffic in the key areas in the north, which is of great significance for connecting the two major airports of Hongqiao and Pudong and serving the development of the Yangtze River Delta Economic Belt.
Many netizens are delighted:
I've been looking forward to it for almost 10 years
It's easier to get around
This urban expressway
Are you looking forward to it when it opens?
