Ya Wan high speed railway has completed the erection of box girder across the existing railway

After three days of continuous struggle, the only box girder crossing the local existing railway in Indonesia was completed in the early morning of the 22nd.

The box girder erection across the existing railway is constructed by China Railway fourth Bureau. The erection of box girder across the existing railway has high safety risk and great construction difficulty. Indonesian railway company has strict requirements on safety protection and erection window time. The project Department of China Railway fourth Bureau has adopted the method of avoiding the passage time of passenger and freight trains at night and constructing in different periods, so as to complete the erection task safely, high quality and efficiently.

The yahwan high-speed railway connects Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia, with Bandung, the fourth largest city, with a total length of about 142 kilometers and a maximum design speed of 350 kilometers per hour.
