Passengers will be able to travel from Wuhan to Hefei in 1 hour and 55 minutes, saving 5 hours and 40 minutes. The other route, linking Shijiazhuang in Hebei Province and Taiyuan in Shanxi Province, will take 59 minutes, saving 4 hours. The line will facilitate transportation between west and north China, said Zhang Shuguang, deputy chief engineer of the ministry. |
