On December 30, the Changzhou-Wuxi section of the Suzhou-Wuxi-Changzhou South Expressway was officially opened to traffic.
At the same time, China's longest lake-bottom tunnel-the Taihu Tunnel on the Suxi-Changnan Expressway was also officially opened to traffic.
The Suzhou-Wuxi-Changzhou Expressway is a component of the "15-shots, six-vertical, ten-horizontal" highway network plan in Jiangsu Province.
The project is connected to the Changyi Expressway under construction to the west, and to the Wuxi Ring-Taihu Expressway to the east. It is also the second expressway channel between Shanghai and Nanjing.
The Taihu Tunnel is a key control node of the expressway in the southern part of Suzhou, Wuxi and Changsha. It is a "one tunnel across the lake" in the Meiliang Lake area of Taihu Lake. It has a total length of 10.79 kilometers and a pipe corridor in the middle.
The opening of the project makes the expressway loops of Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou directly connected, which is of great significance to the promotion of urban construction in Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou and the economic development of the Yangtze River Delta.
