TheSecond Chengdu–Chongqing high-speed railway (Chinese:成渝中线高铁;lit. 'Chengdu–Chongqing Central line high-speed railway') is a 292-kilometre (181 mi)[1] longhigh-speed rail line that connects the cities ofChengdu (in Sichuan Province) andChongqing in southwestern China, with a maximum speed of 350 km/h (220 mph) and a future design speed of 400 km/h (250 mph).[2][3] It will head viaLezhi,Anyue, andDazu. Construction started on September 26, 2021[4] and it is expected to open in 2027.
The 292 kilometres (181 mi) long Second Chengdu–Chongqing high-speed railway will take a more direct route than the existing 307 kilometres (191 mi) long high-speedChengdu–Chongqing intercity railway and is expected to reduce journey times between the two cities to 50 minutes.[4] In addition, the section between Jianzhou and Dazu Shike will be designed for 400 km/h (250 mph) operations in the future,[5] creating potential conditions for further reductions to travel time.
Approval for the 69.273 billion yuan project was granted on August 17, 2021 by theNational Development and Reform Commission.[1] Later the project cost was revised to 73.3 billion yuan.[5] Construction started on September 26, 2021.[4]
