New Expressway Opens to Traffic in Ningxia
The expressway running through the Ningxia Plain, an area mainly inhabited by the ethnic Hui people in northwest China, opened to traffic Wednesday.

It is part of the national east-west trunk, linking Dandong, Beijing and Lhasa cities. The expressway runs from Shizuishan to Zhongning with a total length of 253 km.

The road brings the total length of expressway in Ningxia to 340 km. Ningxia is accelerating work on the expressway between Zhongning and Haojiaji and between Taoshankou and Tongxin.

The region is striving to build an inter-province expressway network, linking the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Gansu and Shaanxi provinces, with a total mileage of 700 km by 2005.
