BEIJING, November 2025 — China's ambitious high-speed rail expansion continues with significant progress on the Xiong'an-Xinzhou line, a critical component of its national network.

Construction crews successfully closed the tied-arch bridge section of a major bridge for the Xiong'an-Xinzhou high-speed railway in Hebei Province on Saturday, November 15, 2025. This engineering feat is a crucial step in advancing the project.

The completion of this bridge segment is vital for the Xiong'an-Xinzhou high-speed railway, which serves as a pivotal link in the broader Beijing-Kunming high-speed railway. This line is integral to China's extensive high-speed rail artery network, designed with eight vertical and eight horizontal lines.

The railway line is strategically routed to cross over the Baoding-Cangzhou expressway, demonstrating integrated infrastructure development.

This milestone underscores the rapid pace of infrastructure development in China's rail sector, reinforcing its commitment to enhancing national connectivity and economic integration through advanced high-speed rail systems.
