East China’s Jiangsu province has revved up the construction of major investment projects and ensured their smooth progress through every possible effort so as to ensure the fulfillment of this year’s goals for social and economic development. Let’s take a close look.
On Monday, right before the arrival of the cold wave and blizzard, the 500kV line project connecting Tianwan nuclear power plant in Lianyungang to Yandu district of Yancheng was put into operation ahead of schedule.
Lianyungang Power Supply Company formulated a special power protection plan one month in advance for the 14-day construction project by arranging for more than 300 people on duty around the clock, and carrying out more than 40 special inspections on more than 300 kilometers of lines.
By further consolidating the 500 kV main grid structure in Lianyungang area, this project has effectively improved the "defense coefficient" of the grids in Jiangsu and East China in response to extreme weather by shoring up the ability to withstand the test of blizzard and extreme cold, and ensure safe and stable electricity consumption for thousands of households .
Overnight construction went on in the Taihu Lake Tunnel of the Suzhou-Wuxi-Changzhou South Expressway Tuesday night.
Four large-scale grouting machines are running at full power at the same time to continuously inject concrete into the steel mesh, and pouring the main bottom of the tunnel.
At the same time, the construction team covered the quilt and moisture-proof film on the poured cement floor.
The Taihu Tunnel of the Suzhou-Wuxi-Changzhou Southern Expressway is expected to be completed and opened to traffic by the end of 2021. Upon its operation, the tunnel will become the longest and widest underwater tunnel in China, making it of great significance to promoting the coordinated development of Suzhou, Wuxi, and Changzhou and the integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta.
