On the morning of May 25, 2021, the Shugang Expressway in the Lanshan Port Area of Rizhao Port invested and constructed by Shandong High Speed Group held a construction mobilization activity, which marked the official start of the construction of the project.

It is understood that the main line of the Shugang Expressway in the Lanshan Port Area of Rizhao Port is about 13 kilometers long, with a total estimated investment of about 2.5 billion yuan. It will be constructed in accordance with the two-way four-lane expressway standard with a design speed of 120 kilometers per hour.

After the completion of the Shugang Expressway Project in the Lanshan Port Area of Rizhao Port, the Lanshan Port Area and the Shenhai Expressway, Lanluo Expressway and other high-speed road networks can be efficiently interconnected, which is useful for optimizing the regional traffic layout, alleviating the traffic pressure in the city, and improving the port. The efficiency of collection and distribution and the construction of an intensive and efficient road-rail-water integrated transportation system are of great significance, and will effectively promote the high-quality development of the local economy in the future.

Rizhao Port is located on the coast of the Yellow Sea in the southern wing of the Shandong Peninsula, with Shijiu and Lanshan two major port areas. In recent years, with the rapid economic development of the port hinterland and the continuous acceleration of port construction, the cargo throughput of the Lanshan Port Area has shown a rapid growth trend. At present, the transportation in the Lanshan Port Area is dominated by roads. The collection and distribution channels are relatively simple and most of the port roads pass through the urban area. Faced with road congestion and noise pollution, it is urgent to build a fast and convenient port area To improve traffic capacity and service levels. Shandong Expressway Group actively responded to local development needs, quickly started the preliminary work of the Rizhao Port Lanshan Port Area Shugang Expressway Project, and steadily promoted the pre-examination of land use and other pre-requisites for approval, and successfully obtained the approval of the Provincial Development and Reform Commission and the design of the Provincial Department of Transportation. Approval, start the project construction one month in advance.
