On August 26, the high-profile Yancheng-Funing expressway opened, which is a major project to promote urban-rural integration, optimize the transportation system and escalate city’s comprehensive competitiveness, with a closer connection between the urban and Jianhu and Funing, further improving the layout and overall high-quality economically and socially.

The expressway will help facilitate the factor mobility and industrial synergy. This six-lane expressway, without traffic lights, people can drive smoothly between the urban area and Jianhu and Funing under the speed limit of 100 km/h. Within 40 minutes drive, the shortened-distance from Funing to the urban may help the old “one of three northern counties” transform into “Yancheng north” .
