To increase the capacity, quality, and efficiency of the North-South intercity rail connectivity and to promote low-carbon transportation system across the western Greater Bay Area in China.
DESCRIPTION
China Government has requested sovereign-backed financing to support the construction of one section of Guangzhou-Foshan-Jiangmen-Zhuhai (GFJZ) Intercity Rail line within Jiangmen Municipality, a city in Guangdong Province on the western bank of the Pearl River Estuary. Connecting four major cities, the GFJZ Intercity Rail is an essential and currently missing link in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) Intercity Railway Network. It has been included in the Construction Plan for Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area Intercity Railways approved by National Development and Reform Commission in 2020 and the 14th Five-Year Plan for Development of Comprehensive Transportation in Guangdong Province approved by Guangdong Provincial Government in 2021. Upon completion, the GFJZ Intercity Rail will play a significantly strategic role in achieving green and efficient interconnection within GBA and promoting balanced and inclusive regional development for cities in the western GBA. |
