[HIGHLIGHTS] Water comes from the Xijiang River to nourish more than 32 million people in the Greater Bay Area

Water comes from the Xijiang River to nourish more than 32 million people in the Greater Bay Area. The 113.2-kilometer-long underground water tunnel runs through the core urban agglomeration of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay area.

The project will lay the water pipeline 40-60 meters underground, crossing a total of 4 high-speed railways, 8 subways, 12 highways, 16 rivers and lakes. There are 37 ultra-deep vertical working wells, and the permanent land acquisition is only 2,600 acres.
