Nearly 100,000 construction troops fought for 7 spring and autumn, spanning Hunan, Zizhou and Yuanshui, crossing the Xuefeng Mountains, and building a 540-kilometer expressway, fully completing the construction of the G60 Shanghai-Kunming Expressway Hunan section. The Shanghai-Kunming Expressway is 2,370 kilometers long and is an important east-west transportation artery in my country. The Hunan section connects Jiangxi in the east and Guizhou in the west. It consists of four sections from east to west, including Litan, Tanshao, Shaohuai and Huaixin. It was built in July 2000 and was fully completed in November 2007.
This is the most dazzling "one horizontal" in the "seven vertical and seven horizontal" expressway network in our province. It injects strong "highway power" into Hunan's economic development; the construction of the Hunan section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway is unprecedented in the construction of expressways in the province. Hunan Daily Huasheng Online today launched the series of reports on "The Hunan Section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway: The Transportation Artery, Holding Up the Dream of Take-off".

Nearly 100,000 construction troops fought for 7 spring and autumn, spanning Hunan, Zizhou, and Yuanshui, crossing the Xuefeng Mountains, building a 540-kilometer expressway, fully connecting the G60 Shanghai-Kunming Expressway.
Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, with a total length of 2,370 kilometers, is an important east-west transportation artery in my country. The Hunan section connects Jiangxi in the east and Guizhou in the west. It consists of four sections from east to west, including Litan, Tanshao, Shaohuai and Huaixin. It was built in July 2000 and was fully completed in November 2007.
This is the most dazzling "one horizontal" in the "seven vertical and seven horizontal" expressway network in our province. As an important link connecting eastern and western China, it has injected strong "high-speed power" into Hunan's economic development.
540 kilometers of expressway, connecting 6 cities in Hunan,
, traveling westward and directly to Guizhou and Yunnan.
htmlOn July 30, the reporter drove from Liling Jinyu Stone Toll Station to enter the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway.All the way, it's like walking through a long gallery. The expressway is like a flowing silk, with green slopes integrated with the fields, factories and farmhouses on both sides of the road, full of "poetry and distant places".
starts from the Litan section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway at the junction of Hunan and Jiangxi Provinces. It started construction in May 2004 and was completed and opened to traffic in October 2007. The total length of the main line is 71.4 kilometers. Since then, our province has connected the expressway with the Yangtze River Delta, and Hunan's "East Gate" has opened another big channel.
continues to drive westward, and the Tanshao section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway is caught in your eyes.
is between the hills and gullies of Xiangtan to Shaoyang . In July 2000, the Tanshao Expressway, with a total length of 220.1 kilometers, broke ground; it was completed and opened to traffic on December 26, 2002.
Shaohuai section of Shanghai-Kunming Expressway was delayed due to the blockage of Xuefengshan .
But the provincial party committee and government have made up their minds that no matter how difficult the Shaohuai Expressway is, it must face the difficulties and get on the horse as soon as possible.
Deng Hong, then Minister of Political Department of Shaohuai Expressway Construction and Development Co., Ltd., introduced that the earliest inclusion of Shaohuai Expressway into the national plan began during the "Eighth Five-Year Plan" period. After several demonstrations, the project plan was finally finalized: cross the Xuefeng Mountain, cross the boundary from Zhongfang County, insert Zhijiang , Xinhuang, and go directly to Guizhou.
In September 2003, construction of Shaohuai and Huaixin Expressways began.
builds a large channel that opens up the outward direction of central Hunan and southwest Hunan , which is people's dream for many years.
1929, due to the current situation, the "Hong (Jiang) Wu (Gang) Highway" was built. After several twists and turns, it was not opened to traffic until 1939. Later, it was almost destroyed due to war.
In the 1940s and 1950s, it took two or three days for people to go from Dongkou County to Xuefeng Mountain to Huaihua Anjiang Town.Especially in winter, heavy snow covers the mountain, and it is difficult to climb over the mysterious Xuefeng Mountain.
"Crossing the Zijiang River and Yuanshui, crossing the Xuefeng Mountain is beyond imagination!" Deng Hong introduced that the main line of Shaohuai Expressway is 155.581 kilometers long, and the length of tunnels and bridges is 45 kilometers, which is close to 1/3 of the length of the entire line; the main line of Huaixin Expressway is 93.218 kilometers long, and the construction process is also full of hardships.
In November 2007, the Shaohuai and Huaixin Expressways were completed at the same time, and the entire Hunan section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway was completed and opened to traffic.
This is a highway "digged out" among the mountains and ridges. Nearly 100,000 construction troops, and 540 kilometers of expressways were built in seven years, connecting the six cities of Zhuzhou , Changsha, Xiangtan, Loudi , Shaoyang and Huaihua. Among them, 2/3 of the mileage is the mountain hill landform.
The land of Hunan and Hunan has thus created another wing that helps the economy take off.
overcomes the natural danger of snow peaks, and the 3-hour drive is reduced to 7 minutes
penetrates the mountains and builds bridges, fills the gullies, and paves a smooth road.
, the most difficult construction section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway is the Shaohuai section. The most difficult part of the Shaohuai section is the 7.039-kilometer-long Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel.
"Snow Peak Mountain, mountains are connected, 331 bends, all the gates of hell." In April 1945, the Japanese invaders launched an attack in an attempt to seize the Zhijiang Air Force Base and threaten Chongqing. The Chinese army mobilized 100,000 troops to set up defenses at a dangerous location in Xuefeng Mountain, and successfully blocked the Japanese army. From then on, the "Snow Peak Mountain Battle" was recorded in the history of the War of Resistance. But Xuefeng Mountain has also become a huge barrier to economic development in southwestern Hunan.
"The drivers and passengers passing through Xuefeng Mountain are relatively nervous." Yang Jianguang, director of the Jiangkou Toll Station of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, introduced that in 2000, he had seen a tragic traffic accident in Xuefeng Mountain. At that time, the Xuefeng Mountain section of National Highway 320 was the "lifeline" from Hunan to Guizhou and Yunnan, with an average daily traffic flow of 4,000 units.
htmlOn August 1, the reporter drove into the Xuefeng Mountain section of National Highway 320 from the Jiangkou toll station. Because the Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel is open to traffic, there are very few vehicles driving over Xuefeng Mountain.But the road is still difficult. When the car arrived at the top of Xuefeng Mountain, I saw mountains and clouds and mist. On the way down the mountain, several dangerous points such as "Cow Butt" and "Shaoziping" continued to bend and have a large slope, which made the reporter's heart feel in his throat. Yang Jianguang, who was traveling with
, said that in the past, there were common vehicle congestion and casualties, and it was very smooth to travel for 3 hours.
Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel, designed in 2002, was the longest expressway tunnel in China approved by the Ministry of Transport at that time, and it is also the most difficult super project in the Hunan section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway.
Ding Mingxin, chief engineer of the project department of the 15th Section of Shaohuai Road (Tunnel Shaoyang Terminal) of Guizhou Bridge Engineering Corporation at that time, always sighed: Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel was the largest project he undertakes in his construction career and the most difficult project.
"There are as many as 18 stratigraphic lithologic faults in the tunnel area, and the maximum water inflow during construction exceeds 30,000 cubic meters per 24 hours. That is almost the amount of water in a small reservoir, which is too dangerous." Such a scene still made Ding Mingxin feel scared.
Ding Mingxin and his technical team adopted the "permeation method of double-liquid grouting" - first outside and then inside, repeatedly drilling and injection, and opening holes to induce holes. Before grouting, first drill the water discharge hole in the permeable center, and then gradually grout from the perimeter to the center, and finally seal the holes to ensure the stability and safety of the tunnel structure. The
tunnel is connected and connected, and the accuracy reaches the highest level in China at that time.
"The horizontal error of the Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel is 18 mm and the horizontal elevation error is 13 mm." Jiang Pengfei, who was the manager of Shaohuai Expressway Construction and Development Co., Ltd. at the time, introduced that the limit error of the expressway tunnel penetration specification in my country is 300 mm horizontally and 70 mm horizontal elevation error. The precise completion of the Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel is not luck, but the construction workers' pursuit of the ultimate ingenuity!
"cut through" the towering Xuefeng Mountain, which took the builders a full 2 years and 34 days.
On August 19, 2006, the Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel, with a total length of 7.039 kilometers, was successfully completed.
used to be a 3-hour drive, reduced to 7 minutes.
From the history of climbing the Xuefeng Mountain through a thousand hardships, say goodbye completely.
shortens the time and space distance and promotes Hunan to integrate into the global economic pattern
On the morning of August 1, a express logistics vehicle drove out of the Anjiang Interchange of Shanghai-Kunming Expressway and came to the "Xiangjie Fruit Industry" supermarket. The whole box of yellow peaches and honey pomelos was moved to the car and sent to Changsha.
Xiang Qunmei, born in 1967, is known as "Sister Xiang". She is a well-known leader in poverty alleviation and prosperity.
"Fruits are sold across the country, relying on expressways." Xiang Qunmei told reporters that before the construction of Shaohuai Expressway started in 2003, her annual net income of 30,000 yuan was now 10 times that of that year.
It is midsummer, and in the Hongjiang Ancient Mall, 26 kilometers away from Anjiang, there are so many tourists.
"Take your children to see this 'Little Nanjing' in the Ming and Qing Dynasties during the summer vacation." Sun Wei, who runs a trading company, drove from Changsha to the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, and went directly to Hongjiang in more than 4 hours. He said that the ancient mall more than 10 years ago was not as popular as it is today.
In 2008, the second year of the opening of the Shaohuai section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, the number of tourists from Hongjiang Ancient Mall was 350,000; in 2018, the number of tourists from the ancient mall reached 4.630,600.
Agricultural products are moving across the country, and the tourism industry is in full swing... The Shanghai-Kunming Expressway is opened, with people, vehicles and logistics coming, releasing the momentum of development, and regional economic development is booming.
Yin Xiandong, who has been working hard in Changsha for many years, built Wanmei Composite Materials Company in Dongkou Economic and Technological Development Zone in 2016, with a gratifying development momentum; Changguanlong Sports Goods Company settled in Dongkou, and the football, volleyball and other products produced are sold well at home and abroad...
Dongkou Economic and Technological Development Zone Management Committee Director Zeng Sannao sighed: If you want to be rich, build roads first, it’s not bad!
Relying on the convenience of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, Dongkou Economic and Technological Development Zone has gathered 118 high-quality enterprises. Before the Shaohuai Expressway was opened to traffic, this was something I would never have thought of in my dreams.
How to maximize the transportation advantages of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway into economic advantages?
Take Shaoyang as an example. The city focuses on promoting the construction of Hunan Business Industrial Park along the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, building a 100-mile industrial corridor of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, and opening up a new battlefield for latecomer catching up and promoting high-quality economic development.
Shaoyang City In 2018, there were 1,410 enterprises in the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway Baili Industrial Corridor area, accounting for 82.5% of the city's total; the industrial output value of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway Baili Industrial Corridor has accounted for 79.1% of the total industrial output value of Shaoyang.
"The Shanghai-Kunming Expressway has greatly shortened the time and space distance between regions along the route and inter-provincial transportation, and promoted Hunan to integrate into the global economic pattern." Tao Qingxian, an associate researcher at the Institute of Economics of the Provincial Academy of Social Sciences, analyzed that the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway reaches Shanghai in the east and Yunnan in the west, which is an important channel for Hunan to give full play to its strategic advantages of the "Belt and Road" and integrate into the development of the "Belt and Road". The rising traffic volume of
is the most powerful proof of the vitality of this highway. In 2008, the average traffic volume of the Hunan section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway was 7,359 vehicles/day; in 2018, the average traffic volume of the Hunan section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway reached 33,395 vehicles/day.
The road conditions in Hunan section are still being optimized and upgraded. After the overhaul of the Xiangtan-Shaoyang section has been completed, the expansion project of the Liling-Loudi section of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, which has been included in the 13th Five-Year Plan for our province, will be started by the end of this year.
Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, traffic flowing around, accompanied by the sound of whistles and rolling wheels, heading towards a happy distance.

The guardian of Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel
0 July 2, 2018 at around 18:00 on July 2, 2018, the central part of Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel was heading west to east of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway.
A large truck driving into the tunnel collided with another large truck parked in the driving lane.
In an instant, two cars caught fire and burned, and thick smoke rolled.
Danger is the command.
The guardians of Xuefeng Mountain Bridge and Tunnel immediately rushed to the scene and guided the stranded personnel to evacuate together with the firefighters, traffic police and others. In less than half an hour, 351 people were safely evacuated and evacuated. After the incident, there were "zero casualties" and low property losses, providing a sample for tunnel accident rescue.
"The accident occurred in the middle of the tunnel, which may not only cause major congestion and casualties, but may also affect the safety of the main structure of the tunnel." Li Dongsheng, director of Xuefeng Mountain Bridge and Tunnel Management Office, still felt scared when recalled. The worst tunnel traffic accident on Hunan Expressway has so far. If you are not careful in dealing with it, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Raise troops for a thousand days, and use troops for a while.
These "army" are the guardians called "Snow Peak Guardian". Since the Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel was opened, they moved to the entrances at both ends of the tunnel, accompanied by the mountains and ridges, and monitored and inspected 24 hours a day.
Zhou Yan, head of the maintenance engineering department of the Shaoyang Management Office of Hunan Expressway Group, said that the life of the expressway guardian is simple, hard and lonely, and his work is inconspicuous, but it is related to the safety and smooth journey of the drivers and passengers.
"Dedication, responsibility, innovation and dedication", these "Snow Peak Spirit" tempered in tunnel construction still stand at both ends of the Xuefeng Mountain Tunnel.
Year after year, the guardians are used to the whistling mountain wind and the continuous whistling of whistling. (Hunan Daily reporter Liu Yongtao)
Eyewitness said
Reportage "The Journey" remembers the glorious years
Narrator: Deng Hong (at the time director of the Political Department of Shaohuai Expressway Construction and Development Co., Ltd.)
Time: August 6, 2019
As a member of the construction army, I participated in the preparations for the Shaohuai Expressway project in April 2002, and was transferred at the final stage of the project in May 2008, and spent the entire 6 years on the front line of construction. After running on the road construction site for many years, I want to write a long reportage that records the construction process of the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway and the happy experiences of the villagers along the highway.
The reportage "Zhengtu" written by me was published by Hunan People's Publishing House. The book has 400,000 words and many characters. The passionate years about the construction of Shanghai-Kunming Expressway are as vivid as before the eyes through the words. Even if I pick it up and read it after 12 years of opening to traffic, my memory will still be pulled into the boiling point of this emotion in an instant. Every word in the book is soaked with sweat and emotions. Let people feel the magnificence behind a highway.
Nowadays, many drivers and passengers traveling through the Shanghai-Kunming Expressway have long been accustomed to the smooth flow, busyness and fast and safe tunnels. But how many people know the story behind the construction of this road? Who else will remember it? Who will pass on the spirit of overcoming difficulties on the journey?
I want to say that such a question is a reminder of the future and an echo of history.Through my eyes and my brushstrokes, I use "Zhengtu" to set a coordinate for a road. I hope "Zhengtu" is an artistic group sculpture that records the heroes of road construction, and is a witness to the waves of the times and the dedication of youth.
