Subway construction continued over the holiday

2019-02-14

 

Xiamen Railway Group said last week that more than 3,100 workers at 90 construction sites continued to work throughout the Spring Festival holiday. Work resumed after a three-day pause at numerous other sites. A regular construction schedule and a crew of almost 8,000 workers will resume after Lantern Festival on February 19.

 

Officials said that work continues on four new subway routes, with Line Two at the most developed stage. Line Two will terminate on the island of Xiamen at the four-floor Dongdu Road Station, which will have a total length of 168 meters and a depth of 38 meters. Track preparation for the 32-station Line Two is now 60 percent complete.
