Recently, the Provincial Department of Transportation organized and compiled the Revision of Anhui Provincial Highway Network Planning (2022-2035), which was approved by the provincial government and issued for implementation. It is planned that by 2035, the total mileage of ordinary national highways in Anhui Province will be about 26,205 kilometers, and the road network density will be about 18.7 kilometers/100 square kilometers. Among them, the ordinary national highway is about 8300 kilometers, and the ordinary provincial highway is about 17905 kilometers.

This round of planning revision added and adjusted 112 ordinary provincial routes.

According to the National Highway Network Planning, there are 29 national highways in Anhui Province, with a mileage of about 8,300 kilometers, including 3 radial lines from the capital, 7 north-south longitudinal lines, 12 east-west transverse lines and 7 tie lines. There are 249 general provincial roads, including 5 radial lines, 55 vertical lines, 48 horizontal lines, 131 tie lines and 10 loop lines, with a total mileage of 17,905 kilometers.

The layout scheme of ordinary national highways has been clearly defined in the National Highway Network Planning, and this planning focuses on the layout scheme and composition of ordinary provincial highways. This round of planning revision added and adjusted 112 routes, with a net increase of 2322 kilometers; Among them, 56 lines were added, with a net increase of 1445 kilometers, 39 lines were extended, with a net increase of 830 kilometers, and 17 local routes were adjusted, with a net increase of 47 kilometers.

According to the route function, new and adjusted routes are divided into eight types: accelerating the development of regional integration. 19 new and adjusted routes, including 11 new routes, such as Nanqiao-Pukou, Tiantangzhai-Luotian and Gaochun-Beaver Bridge; Extend 5, such as Shengquan-Wangjiaba; Three local routes were adjusted, such as Hefei-Fuyang. Improve the level of inter-city connectivity. 14 routes were added and adjusted, including 8 new routes, such as Chulan-Lieshan, Zipeng-Chengnan and Daguan-Shuang Gang. Extend six, such as the old bridge-Lintou.

Deepen the coverage of economic nodes. 19 new and adjusted routes, including 15 new routes, such as Bai Liu-Jinshe, Zhongguan-Hetu, Fuxing-Huikou, etc. Extend 4, such as Xuba-Xiaohe. Strengthen the connectivity of transportation hubs. 14 new and adjusted routes, including 6 new ones, such as Shuangduiji-Wugou, Gucheng-Baogong, Huangshan West High-speed Railway Connection Line, etc. Extend 7 articles, such as Dancheng-Xiyang; One local route adjustment, namely Maotan Factory-Sun.

Optimize the layout of the port-dredging highway. 9 new and adjusted routes, including 5 new ones, such as osawa Township-Qi County, Gaohuang-Fenghuang, Shijian-Yanqiao, etc. Extend 4, such as Laozhou-Longtan. Promote cross-river (river) linkage development. Seven routes were added and adjusted, including three new routes, including Xinji-Zaoxiang, Zhengyangguan-Saijian and Huayang-Xiangyue. Extend 4 lines, such as Huangwei-Zongpu.

Promote the deep integration of travel. Seven new and adjusted routes were added, including four new loop lines, including Jiaogang Lake, Tianzhu Mountain, Jiuhua Mountain and Huating Lake. Based on the planning and layout of scenic spots in southern Anhui and other regions, three scenic spots were added and adjusted, such as Taohuatan-du cun. Improve and optimize the road network layout. 23 routes were added and adjusted, including 3 new routes, including Zhuangli-Shuoli, Leichi-Taici and Yansi-Xintan; Extend 7 articles, such as Shiyang-Zhongyan, etc. 13 local routes were adjusted, such as Hanting-Wan ‘an.

All towns and villages in the province basically realize the ordinary national and provincial roads within 15 minutes.

After the revision of the plan, the inter-provincial interconnection is closer. It is planned to add 16 provincial exits of ordinary provincial roads, including 8 in the direction of Yangtze River Delta and 8 in the direction of central China. The total number of provincial exports of ordinary national and provincial highways has increased from 137 to 153, including 84 in the direction of Yangtze River Delta (69 in Jiangsu and 15 in Zhejiang) and 68 in the direction of central China (45 in Henan, 13 in Hubei and 10 in Jiangxi). The level of inter-provincial interconnection has been further improved, and the function of serving Anhui Province to link Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang and radiate the "two sectors" in the central and western regions has been effectively strengthened, which is of great significance to the integration of Yangtze River Delta and the Yangtze River.

By then, all towns and villages, scenic spots with 4A level and above, development zones and industrial parks above the provincial level in the province will basically reach the national provincial highway within 15 minutes, which will provide strong support for building "three places and one district" and "seven strong provinces". The layout across the river and Huaihe River is more perfect. All the important port areas, high-speed general interchange, high-speed railway station and other important transportation hubs in the province can get on the ordinary national and provincial roads within 10 minutes, which significantly improves the efficiency of connecting different modes of transportation and effectively promotes the level of comprehensive transportation development.

The number of cross-river passages of provincial highways in ordinary countries has increased from 8 to 10; The number of cross-Huai passages in ordinary national and provincial highways has increased from 14 to 21, and the average spacing has decreased from 26 km to 17 km, which has significantly improved the passage capacity and promoted the comprehensive development of urban cross-river and cross-Huai integration. The reporter learned that this round of planning revision has added and adjusted 9 ordinary provincial roads connecting important port areas, and there are 89 ordinary national provincial roads connecting important port areas in the province, achieving 100% coverage of important port areas in the province. The key port areas along the Yangtze River, Huaihe River and Jianghuai Canal have basically achieved coverage of 2 or more ordinary national provincial roads, and the highway dredging capacity has been further improved.

In the whole province, a "one-master and one-standby" composite highway passage between expressways and ordinary national and provincial highways is basically formed, and the main skeleton of the comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network in the province basically realizes the road network layout form of "one-master and many-standby" and "double-master and many-standby", and the network reliability and facility safety are obviously improved.
