  On September 24th, the last 32-meter-long T-beam weighing 140 tons landed steadily on the piers of the Lixinzhai Fourth-Line Bridge, marking the completion of the bridge erection on the China-Laos Railway. The Lixinzhai Fourth-Line Extra Large Bridge is located in Tongchangchong Village of Yuanjiang County in the Yuxi Municipality. It is the longest simply-supported T-beam extra-large bridge of the domestic section on the China-Laos Railway. The bridge is 952.8 meters long and the highest pier is 54.5 meters.

   The China-Laos railway is more than 1,000 kilometers long and is an important transportation infrastructure for connecting China with neighboring countries. As a domestic section of the China-Laos Railway, the Yuxi to Mohan Line connects with Yuxi in the north and Mohan at the China-Laos border port in the south. It is connected to the Laos section of the China-Laos Railway which is still under construction. The total length of the line is 508 kilometers. It is a national first-class electrified railway. After it is completed and opened for use, it will only take approximately three hours from Kunming to Jinghong in Xishuangbanna. It is estimated that leaving Kunming in the evening you would arrive in Vientiane by the next morning.
