Better expressways improve Hefei traffic

Amid fast urban expansion, Anhui’s provincial capital Hefei is boosting local traffic through renovated expressways in the city proper. It greenlighted its 42.05-kilometer Second-Ring Road by opening the last remaining renovated part to traffic on Monday. The renovation on the southwestern part, done by China Tiesiju Civil Engineering Group, helps link the four core districts of the city. It also started to renovate its first viaduct — the Jinzhai Road Viaduct — by extending the super bridge for 7,650 meters to the south, to improve north-south traffic.
