Recently, the Pinglu Canal, designed and built by CCCC, is currently under construction in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Upon completion, the canal will become the shortest, most economical and most convenient sea outlet in southwestern China.

The canal, with a total length of 134.2 kilometers, has a designed one-way annual capacity of 89 million tons. First Harbor Engineering, Second Harbor Engineering and other five CCCC's subsidiaries have participated in the design and construction of the project. The project mainly includes the construction of waterways, shipping hubs, water conservancy facilities and supporting cross-river projects along the canal.

Upon completion, the canal will not only support the development of its region, but also promote the development of industries along the canal.

The Xijin reservoir, the starting point of the Pinglu Canal, is located 65 meters above the estuary. Madao, Qishi and Qingnian junctions will be built in the waterways of the canal to adjust water level differences to ensure safety and stability.

Madao, the first junction of the canal, has the largest scale and water level differences among the three junctions. 

As key components of the canal, the three junctions have been under construction since August last year and the first phase was completed.

The bridge of Pinglu Canal across the Maowei Sea in Qinzhou, with eight lanes and a designed speed of 60 km/h, has the total length of 1.87 kilometers. The project mainly includes the removement of the old bridge, the construction of Shajing-Qinjing Bridge, bridge approaches and supporting facilities.
