On the morning of the 12th, the third day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Jianguo, the equipment integration project manager of the Shanghai Municipal Railway Airport Contact Line Communication Signal Project Department, was at the "Three Centers" project operation site, handing over work with colleagues who had just returned from their hometown for the New Year. He is a little excited after working in the project department so far. He will take the high-speed rail back to his hometown in Shandong in the afternoon to reunite with his family.
The Airport Link Line is the first new municipal railway in Shanghai. Construction started on June 28, 2019. In order to achieve the goal of having initial operating conditions for the early opening section (Hongqiao Station to Pudong Airport Station) within this year, the construction of major professional system projects The workers did not stop work during the Spring Festival and stayed on the construction front line to ensure progress and meet deadlines.

"On New Year's Eve this year, I had takeout alone in the project department." Zhou Jianguo told a reporter from China News Service that there were two colleagues who were also on duty in the project department. Their families came to Shanghai to visit relatives, so they did not have New Year's Eve dinner together.
Zhou Jianguo, 37, has been engaged in the rail transit communications and signal industry for more than ten years. It is no longer unusual for him to be unable to go home for the New Year. "This is the case for engineering units. Everything follows the construction schedule."
However, Zhou Jianguo is eager to return home this year. "When I was having New Year's Eve dinner alone, my family made a video call. My one-and-a-half-year-old son didn't even recognize me." He said that he missed his children and wanted to go back to his hometown to visit. It has been more than half a year since he went back.
The "Three Centers" project that Zhou Jianguo participated in is the "core hub" of the entire Shanghai municipal railway network. It includes functions such as a dispatch center, an operations center, and a skills training base. It is responsible for coordinating the processing of various tasks from stations, wind shafts, parking lots, and depots. , summarize all kinds of information on the train and issue corresponding instructions. After the project is completed, it will coordinate the orderly operation of various municipal railways such as the airport connection line.
"During the Spring Festival, everyone worked hard to debug the system to provide favorable conditions for subsequent related operations." On February 12, at the "Three Centers" project site, Fu Danzheng, the person in charge of the weak current project of Shanghai Shentie Project Management Department, the project builder, stayed behind for the Spring Festival. The engineers cheered.
Dan Fu is a technical "female general". As the person in charge of the construction of the airport contact line communication signal project, she also stayed on the front line during the Spring Festival this year. "My husband is also engaged in related work, so we can understand each other's working style." Dan Fu said that he usually returns to his hometown in Jiangxi during the New Year. This year, he can only bring his family to Shanghai to celebrate the New Year together. "It is really important to build the airport contact line project." It’s so meaningful, so whether it’s the designer, builder, or builder, they all put in a lot of effort into this.”

Dan Vo said that if the airport connection line is compared to a person, then the tunnels, roadbeds, elevated roads, and stations are his bones, the decoration, wind, water, and electricity projects are the muscles and organs, and the communication signals and information systems are like the entire body. Human nervous system. Currently, the communication information system integration and signaling system construction of the airport link line from Hongqiao Station to Pudong Airport Station are in full swing.
"It is crucial to complete the system debugging of the 'Three Centers' project as soon as possible, because this is a prerequisite for each station section to be connected and carry out system joint debugging." Dan Fu said that during the Spring Festival this year, there were more than 80 construction parties and People worked overtime to implement the communication information system debugging of the "Three Centers" project and the bracket installation and cable laying work in related sections, gaining valuable time for important nodes such as later train debugging and comprehensive joint debugging.
It is reported that the Shanghai Municipal Railway-Airport Link Line is 68.6 kilometers long, passing through the three administrative districts of Minhang, Xuhui, and Pudong New Area. There are a total of 9 stations along the entire line, and the maximum operating speed of the trains can reach 160 kilometers per hour. After the project is completed, the running time between the two comprehensive transportation hubs of Hongqiao and Pudong can be controlled to about 40 minutes, and interchanges with multiple existing and under-construction rail transits can be achieved.
At the same time, the airport connection line will further enhance the radiating effect of Pudong and Hongqiao integrated transportation hubs on the Yangtze River Delta region, serve the Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration, and provide information for improving Shanghai’s global city energy level and core competitiveness and implementing the national strategy for the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta. Strong support.
In mid-January this year, the main structure of the airport contact line has been basically completed. The overall track bed construction and long track laying of the track project from Hongqiao Station to Pudong Airport Station are currently underway. Station decoration, installation of electromechanical equipment and ancillary entrance and exit structures are also being promoted simultaneously. Waiting for work. (over)
