en.Wedoany.com Reported - On April 10, Shanxi Road and Bridge Construction Group Hebao Highway Project Management Co., Ltd. released the construction tender plan for the LJ1 section of the new Provincial Highway 247 project from Liujiata to Tuya Tower. This highway construction project is located in Hequ County, Xinzhou City, with a total investment of 8.807 billion yuan and a main line length of 109.3 kilometers. The release of this tender announcement signifies that this provincial-level key project has officially transitioned from preliminary preparations to the substantive construction preparation phase.
The highway construction project spans Hequ County and Baode County in Xinzhou City, as well as Xing County in Luliang City. The route starts at Pingtou Village, Liujiata Town, Hequ County, connecting to National Highway 336; the terminus is located at Liujiamao Village, Watang Town, Xing County, linking to Provincial Highway 110. The entire line is constructed according to the first-class highway standard with dual four-lane carriageways, a design speed of 60 km/h, a roadbed width of 20 meters, and a bridge and culvert design load rating of Highway-I. The overall construction period is set at 3 years.
The construction scope of the LJ1 section covers multiple dimensions including roadbed, bridges, culverts, tunnels, and railway-related works. Among these, the railway-related works, which include underpasses beneath railway roadbeds and overpasses over railway lines, are key nodes of this section. As the first "road transportation infrastructure" concession project implemented in Shanxi Province, and also the first toll road concession project in the province since the release of relevant national guidance in November 2023, this project has been included in the "Shanxi Province '14th Five-Year Plan' Modern Comprehensive Transportation System Development Plan".
Upon completion, this project will form a north-south energy transportation corridor running through Hequ and Baode. By achieving traffic diversion between the Yellow River No. 1 Tourist Highway and Provincial Highway 247, the project will improve traffic efficiency in the Yellow River Jinshan Gorge area. Currently, the tender scope covers all aspects of the LJ1 section construction, and the project is about to enter the on-site mobilization and full-scale construction phase.
