Face with CCCC Travelogue of China:
Exploring CCCC's Footprints Open Day Activity
for International Media
The "Travelogue of China" international media communication activity, launched in May 2023, invites international journalists to explore China's rich historical and cultural heritage and modern technological advancements, transforming their experiences into news reports that vividly convey China's true stories and images to the world. As part of this program, international media delegations visited CCCC to delve into CCCC's innovations in "big transportation" and "big cities" sectors.
From March 22 to 24, 2024, a group of 33 international journalists from 32 countries, including Egypt, Algeria, and Morocco, visited CCCC's subsidiaries and projects in Jiangsu Province. This immersive experience allowed them to closely observe the company's green development practices, the impressive scale of its major engineering projects, and the advanced technological capabilities of Chinese manufacturing.
Changtai Yangtze River Bridge
World's Longest Cable-Stayed Bridge
Spanning 10.03 kilometers, the bridge links Changzhou and Taizhou and is the first bridge integrating expressways, intercity railways, and regular highways across the Yangtze River. Setting four global precedents and achieving six world records, it features a main span of 1,208 meters—the longest for a cable-stayed bridge—and 350-meter-high main towers, the tallest of their kind under construction worldwide.
Journalists visited the bridge's monitoring and management center, as well as its bridge deck, gaining insights into the bridge's innovative construction technologies and its significance. Many praised the advanced construction techniques and the ingenuity of Chinese engineers.
Meiliang Lake Dredging Works of Taihu Lake in Wuxi
A Chinese Model for River and Lake Ecological Management
Journalists observed CCCC's innovative dredging platform, "Taihu Star," in action on Taihu Lake's Meiliang segment.
This all-in-one eco-friendly dredging vessel, the first of its kind globally, integrates dredging, sediment solidification, and wastewater treatment.Spanning approximately 28.9 square kilometers and dredging about 8.34 million cubic meters of sediment, the project employs three coordinated vessels that resemble a floating, mobile factory.
CCCC Tianhe's Shield TBM R&D and Manufacturing Base
Leading the Smart, Unmanned, and Green Evolution of TBM
Journalists visited CCCC Tianhe's shield TBM R&D and manufacturing base, the world's largest and most advanced.CCCC Tianhe's commitment to innovation has led to high-quality TBM products and cutting-edge technologies, such as the extra-long distance tunneling without cutter change for extra-large diameter TBM and new compression injection methods in TBM technology.
These advancements not only shape tunneling in over 30 Chinese cities but also serve projects in Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan, Singapore, and beyond.
