Is it true that Guangzhou will build a subway to Qingyuan?

The idea of building urban light rail transit in Qingyuan and connecting it with Guangzhou Metro Line 9 was approved by the provincial people's government.

It is reported that if this project with an investment of nearly 40 billion yuan is completed, it will greatly shorten the distance between Qingyuan and Guangzhou, and the past 50 minutes' drive takes only about 25 minutes.

The influence of Guangzhou subway construction on Qingyuan;

With the completion and use of Qinglian Expressway, the two-way traffic flow will increase. If the expansion project of Guangqing Expressway is too slow to keep up with the progress, the Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway in northern Guangdong will be blocked due to weather changes, which is likely to cause traffic jams on Guangqing Expressway.
