Now another high-speed railway is about to open-Shihengcang Port Intercity Railway, with a planned total length of 332.560km, starting from Shijiazhuang, passing through Hengshui and Cangzhou, and finally reaching Bohai Sea. The preparatory work for the railway started on 20 15, and it is expected to start construction this year and be fully put into use in 2022. The total investment of the railway is as high as 34.69 billion yuan, and the planned speed is about 250 kilometers per hour. Railway construction will also greatly promote the development of these three cities.
Although Shijiazhuang is the capital of Hebei Province, it is much dimmer than neighboring Beijing and Tianjin. The city covers an area of 2,206 square kilometers with a population of 1 0,078,460. It is not only the main hub of China railway, but also the main wheat growing area in China, and is called the "northern granary".
Hengshui, with an area of 88 15 square kilometers, is an important processing base for agricultural and sideline products and a major city in the Bohai Economic Circle. Hengshui Lake is rich in tourism resources, with beautiful scenery and many celebrities. Dong Zhongshu, Gao Shi and other historical celebrities all live here.
Cangzhou and the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal pass through the territory, and are the main land and sea transportation hubs and famous economic open areas in the north. Cangzhou is also a city with a long history and beautiful scenery. Baiyangdian Lake, the largest freshwater lake in North China, is here. It also has attractions such as Cangzhou Iron Lion and Botou Mosque.
After the completion of the railway, it will greatly promote the development of these three cities. Let's wait and see.
