[Jinghe-Alashankou section added second-line project to resume work] On March 20, 2023, in Alashankou Station, a national first-class port station, more than 10 large-scale construction machines were carrying out roadbed filling construction in an intense and orderly manner. With the full expansion and reconstruction of the Alashankou station transshipment yard, the construction of the second line of the Jinghe-Alashankou section of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway has fully resumed. In November 2022, the construction of the Jinghe-Alashankou section extension second-line project is located in Boertala Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture. The line starts from Jinghe Station of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang Railway, passes through Jinghe County, Bole City, and Alashankou City, and connects to Alashankou City. Shankou Station, with a total length of 70 kilometers and a design speed of 120 kilometers per hour, is a National Railway Class I electrified railway, and the construction period is 2 years. The project will simultaneously renovate and expand the four existing stations of Jinghe, Mushroom Beach, Bole East, and Alashankou Station, build a new comprehensive inspection field for Alashankou Station, and renovate the container reloading field at this station. After the project is completed, it will form a double-track railway with the existing single-track railway to further improve the transportation capacity of the new Eurasian Continental Bridge. After the transformation of the reloading yard is completed, the five reloading tracks will be extended from the original 470 meters to 800 meters, which can complete the overall reloading operation for the entire train and improve the efficiency of cargo passing. Luo Wenhui, manager of the Jing'an Railway Project Department of China Railway First Bureau, introduced. The Xinjiang Railway Department organized the participating units to reverse the construction period, and completed the site layout, construction water, electricity, communication and other facilities with high standards, laying a solid foundation for the smooth resumption of work.

• [Qiongzhou Strait transportation new energy vehicle ship successfully docked]
• On the afternoon of October 8th, under the on-site escort of the Guangdong Zhanjiang Maritime Bureau's "Haixun 0927" ship, the first flatbed cargo ship dedicated to the transportation of new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait, the "Green Source No. 1" ship, slowly entered the Xuwen Hai'an New Port, marking the successful trial operation of the ship's roll on/roll off transport route in the Qiongzhou Strait. It is reported that the deck cargo ship "Green Source No.1" has a total tonnage of 6731, a net tonnage of 3769, a length of 125.8 meters, and a width of 28 meters. The ship adopts a single-layer deck design, which can carry more than 160 new energy vehicles on a single voyage under full load conditions. The parking capacity is about 60% higher than that of existing passenger and roll on/roll off transport ships. The ship is planned to be deployed on the route from Hai'an New Port in Zhanjiang to Xiuying Port in Haikou. After being put into operation, it will add a new mode of sea transportation for new energy vehicles in the Qiongzhou Strait and effectively alleviate the tense situation of insufficient capacity for new energy vehicle transportation during the peak period of cross sea vehicle transportation in the Qiongzhou Strait.
