Guiyang-Nanning High-Speed Railway aims to open in Sept

According to a press conference held by the Information Office of the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on Aug 3, the Guiyang-Nanning High-Speed Railway is striving to commence operation by the end of September.

The Guiyang-Nanning High-Speed Railway is the first high-speed railway in Guangxi with a designed speed of 350 kilometers per hour. The total length of the railway is 482 km, with 281.37 km of rail located within the autonomous region. There will be four stations in Hechi, namely Hechi West, Du'an, Huanjiang, and Yong'an town stations.

The Guiyang-Nanning High-Speed Railway is a significant passenger railway within the New Land-Sea International Trade Corridor. It serves as the quickest route for transportation between the Chongqing-Chengdu-Guizhou region and the coastal areas of the Beibu Gulf. Once operational, the travel time between Nanning and Guiyang via train will be reduced from the current five hours to approximately two hours.
