The Songbai Ring Road of Huaxi University Town in Guian New Area was fully completed and connected to Songbei Ring Road (Guiyang section) on Feb 1.

The Songbai Ring Road starts at the intersection of Qianzhong Avenue and Dongqing Road and ends at Huaguan Road. 

The two-way ring road passes through Huaxi district and Guian New Area and has a total length of 6.9 kilometers, of which 1.6 km is located in Guian New Area, and 5.3 km are in Huaxi district. It has two-way eight lanes in total and an intended speed limit of 60 km per hour.

"With the completion of the Songbai Ring Road, it will take about 30 minutes to drive from Guian New Area to Guiyang city compared with more than 50 minutes in the past," said Hu Mingbo, a spokesman of Guizhou Guian Construction Investment Co, which was responsible for the construction of the road. 

The road will become a crucial east-west channel between Guian New Area and Guiyang, accelerating the two regions' integrated development and effectively alleviating the traffic pressure on Jiaxiu South Road.
