| Project Detail |
To promote trade and investments in Yingkou City through upgrading intelligent and low-carbon infrastructure in Yingkou Free Trade Zone and Liaohe Economic Development Zone.
DESCRIPTION
Yingkou is an important coastal city in Liaoning province in Northeast China. It is closely connected to East Asian and Pacific economies through the Yingkou port, located in Liaodong Bay, while the extensive railway network makes it a trade and logistics hub in the Northeast China. The inland road/rail connections facilitate trade nationally and, at the same time, international rail corridors (China Railway Express) provide trade linkages to Central Asia and Eastern Europe.
The Project will further assist in the development of the city and Yingkou port as regional logistics hub and increase economic growth by diversifying imports and exports. The Project is supporting the following components:
Component 1: Liaohe Economic Development Zone (Liaohe EDZ) South Expansion: Liaohe EDZ will be expanded by financing priority infrastructure over an additional area of approximately 4 square kilometers.
Component 2: Yingkou Free Trade Zone (Yingkou FTZ): development of priority infrastructure and facilities within the dry port hub industrial park and comprehensive bonded zone to address infrastructure gaps within the Yingkou FTZ. A new railway station, with dedicated railway tracks, loading and unloading yards and other ancillary infrastructure are also proposed under this component to serve the FTZ through rail transport. |
