Railway Embankment Almost Complete Near Lhasa

The embankment for the railway line near Lhasa is almost complete after two months of hard work in the winter season.

The 1,687-meter section from the Zao'erfeng Tunnel to the Lhasa Railway Station, the last mile on the 1,080-kilometer Qinghai-Tibet railway line, has just finished paving the base tier with stone slabs.

The construction squad undertaking the project has worked out five special procedures so as to guarantee the quality of the embankment and hence the railway track proper that is expected to be laid out next year.
