[Karachi Water Supply Pipeline Project in Pakistan Commences] Recently, the construction ceremony of the Karachi 4 water supply pipeline project in Pakistan, undertaken by China Harbour and participated by China Communications Second Navigation Bureau, was held in Karachi. The entire project spans two administrative districts, Karachi and Tata, in Sindh Province, Pakistan. The CCCC Second Navigation Bureau is responsible for two sections, PL1 and PL2, with a total length of 111.7 kilometers. The main construction content includes excavation and backfilling of pipeline pits, steel pipe processing, welding, and installation. The project is one of the key projects along the the Belt and Road and the largest urban infrastructure and livelihood project currently promoted by the Pakistani government. After the completion of the project, it will effectively alleviate the shortage of water resources, poor water quality and other problems in Karachi, and solve the water problem of more than 20 million people in Karachi.

• [The reconstruction project of the S26 highway has officially started]
• On January 3, 2026, the construction of bridge pile foundations for the reconstruction project of the S26 highway (provincial boundary G15 highway) officially began, marking the comprehensive launch of the upgrade project for this important passage connecting Shanghai and Jiangsu. The project starts from the border between Shanghai and Jiangsu provinces in the west and ends at G15 highway in the east, with a total length of about 18.8 kilometers, located in Qingpu District. The core content is to widen the main line of the S26 Shanghai Changzhou Expressway, upgrade it to a two-way 8-lane road by widening on both sides, and simultaneously implement the reconstruction of nodes such as Zhaozhong Highway and G15 interchange, as well as the optimization of toll stations. The project aims to improve road capacity and safety level, overcome traffic bottlenecks, and strengthen the rapid connection between Shanghai and the Suzhou Wuxi Changzhou metropolitan area. It is a key project to serve the integration of the Yangtze River Delta and optimize the western road network of the city. Editor/Cheng Liting

• [The new construction project of Shanghai North South Passage has officially started]
• On January 2, 2026, the key project of the high-speed road network in the central urban area of Shanghai, the construction of the North South Passage, officially began. The project, with a total length of 14.55 kilometers, will fill the gap in north-south rapid transportation in the central urban area and become the finishing touch to improve the layout of Shanghai's "cross shaped" backbone road network. The core significance of engineering lies in systematically improving the level of urban transportation: on the one hand, it will effectively enhance the reliability and resilience of the expressway network, balance north-south traffic flow, and alleviate congestion pressure; On the other hand, it will significantly strengthen the radiation and driving effect of core functional areas such as Lujiazui, the North Bund, and the World Expo area, providing strong transportation support for the development of the areas along the route. The construction of this channel marks an important step for Shanghai in optimizing the spatial structure and comprehensive transportation system of a mega city. Editor/Cheng Liting
