When will the Sichuan-Shaanxi Expressway be opened to traffic?

At 11: a.m. yesterday (24th), the fog dispersed along the Chessboard Pass, and the sky was clear in Wan Li. The reporter got off the bus and walked along the long steep slope at the back of Longdong, the biggest blocking point of the chessboard pass. The cool mountain wind came in bursts, and the temporary unobstructed traffic was a relief. However, Yuan Ming, deputy head of Baotong Brigade on Chessboard No.2 dedicated line, still frowned. Due to the heavy fog, there is still a backlog of nearly 1 kilometers of traffic entering Sichuan in Shaanxi, and this fragile lifeline will be severely tested. The chessboard is closed, and there is not much time to breathe. It will take at least one year to completely alleviate the "chessboard clearance". At that time, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Expressway can only be opened to traffic; Two years later, the Sichuan-Shaanxi Expressway will be fully open to traffic. Why does it take three years for just 58 kilometers? Can the project be completed ahead of schedule?

it will take a long time to catch up with the traffic jam for 58km

The original construction scheme was changed after the earthquake, and then it will come back

On July 1st, 1998, the Qipaiguan No.2 special line was opened to traffic, and the traffic artery connecting southwest with northwest, central and north China was 62km long. With the increasing traffic volume, the section from Qipanjuan to Lingjiang has become a bottleneck section that is prone to serious congestion. In the snowstorm in 28, the stranded traffic for several days and nights completely exposed the fragility of the second dedicated line.

At this time, the construction scheme and bidding plan of Guangzhou-Shaanxi Expressway were gradually introduced. The long-overdue plan is ten years late.

Liao Zhiyong, director of the Engineering Department of the Owner's Representative Office of Guangshan Expressway in North Sichuan Company, said that Guangshan Expressway starts at Qipanguan and ends at Lingyuan Lingjiang, Guangyuan, and connects to Xihan Expressway in the north and Guangzhou Expressway in the south, with a total length of about 58 kilometers. At the beginning of March, 28, the toll station from Lingjiang to Ciyaopu on the Second Dedicated Line was the first to start construction. However, after the Wenchuan earthquake, the construction of this section was forced to be suspended, and the relevant departments decided that the original construction plan must be reformed.

The new construction scheme has greatly adjusted the original scheme, and 8% of the section from Qipaiguan to Ciyaopu needs to build bridges and tunnels, which greatly improves the construction difficulty. At present, the second special line from Lingjiang to Ciyaopu, the 13-kilometer section of Guangshan Expressway can be opened to traffic in half, the bridge foundation installation project has been completed over 9%, and more than 2 bridge piles have not been built.

Why is the progress slow?

The first road is blocked due to lack of funds. The second

At 1 o'clock yesterday morning, the Ciyaopu toll station is the intersection of two roads: one is the Guangzhou-Shaanxi Expressway under construction, and the extra-large viaduct is under construction. One is a two-lane line. There are few vehicles leaving Sichuan on the second dedicated line, and the traffic is smooth. The construction site of Guangzhou-Shaanxi Expressway Bid Section is also very calm, with one or two workers moving machines by the roadside.

keep going, one kilometer away, a crane is working, and there are piles to be built along the line. At 1: 31, the reporter passed the Feixianguan Tunnel, and almost all the bridge piles in this section were completed. Looking along the way, some blocks have made rapid progress, while others are very deserted and in a state of suspension.

A construction worker, who asked not to be named, said that some contractors won the bid at a low price, but the amount of advance payment had greatly exceeded the budget, so they had to stop work because of the shortage of funds. Liao Zhiyong said that some contractors are indeed facing a shortage of funds, resulting in abnormal shutdown. However, they didn't win the bid at a low price. After the earthquake, the cost of construction materials such as steel and cement in Sichuan soared, resulting in insufficient funds for some contractors. "Many contractors have participated in the construction of most expressways in our province, but they don't know enough about the second special line." Liao Zhiyong said that many contractors did not expect that the traffic jam on the second dedicated line would become more and more serious, and it was very likely that the vehicles transporting engineering equipment could not reach the construction site for three days, resulting in slow construction progress.

Can we make a miracle by chasing the traffic jam

It's a miracle to have half a traffic at the end of next year

Spring Festival travel rush is coming, and the second dedicated line will be tested by ice and snow. Can the construction party of Guangzhou-Shaanxi Expressway create miracles? Liao Zhiyong said: "According to the current goal, it will be a miracle if half of the traffic can be completed by the end of next year. It is very difficult to build a viaduct on the river."

According to the plan, before the end of the year, the Guangzhou-Shaanxi Expressway will be opened to traffic in two directions in 1 kilometers ahead of schedule, and by the end of December 21, the right half of the Guangzhou-Shaanxi Expressway will be completed ahead of schedule, forming a section that takes the expressway into Sichuan and Guang Bei out of Sichuan, greatly alleviating the traffic congestion in Guang Bei. In June 211, Guangshan Road was fully opened to traffic, which fundamentally solved the congestion problem.

It is expected that in February next year, the interface of Xihan Expressway will be connected to the Sichuan exit of Qipanguan, and it will be half open to traffic. After some trucks leave the Chessboard Pass, they can go directly to the Western Han Expressway without going through the 1.5-kilometer section under the jurisdiction of Ningqiang Traffic Police.
