China finishes main excavation of monumental Pinglu Canal

China has fully completed the main channel excavation of the Pinglu Canal after overcoming extremely complex geological conditions. The monumental project, stretching 134.2 kilometers, has achieved multiple world firsts, including largest water-saving inland ship lock and fastest operating lock system. Once open to navigation, the Pinglu Canal will provide the shortest and most cost-effective shipping route for southwest China to trade with ASEAN countries, greatly boosting regional economic connectivity.
