On October 8, the Fujian Provincial Development and Reform Commission issued the "Announcement of Competitive Consultation on the Xiamen Zhangzhouquan Intercity Railway R1 Line Project that can be reviewed", marking that this high-profile intercity railway project is about to enter the review and approval stage. Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou Intercity Railway Line R1 is not only an important part of the transportation infrastructure construction in Fujian Province, but also a key measure to promote the integrated development of Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou metropolitan area.

Xiamen Zhangzhou and Quanzhou Intercity Railway Line R1 is an intercity railway that runs through Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou, with a total length of 175.13 km, passing through Quanzhou section of 71.5 km, Xiamen section of 53.4 km and Zhangzhou section of 50.2 km. With a total investment of about 72.7 billion yuan, the project plans to build 30 new stations (including 14 elevated stations and 16 underground stations) and reserve 4 stations for future expansion.

This line not only connects the three major cities and towns in Quanzhou, Xiamen and Zhangzhou, but also connects the east of Quanzhou, Jinjiang Airport, Xiang 'an Airport, Gaoqi Airport, Zhangzhou Station and other important transportation hubs. Its completion will greatly enhance the convenience and efficiency of traffic in the region, and has important strategic significance for promoting the integrated development of Xia-Zhangzhou-quan metropolitan area.

At the end of 2023, the construction planning adjustment scheme of Xia-Zhangzhou-Quanzhou Intercity Railway R1 line was approved by the National Development and Reform Commission, marking the formal entry of the project into the implementation phase. In April 2024, entrusted by Fujian Provincial Development and Reform Commission, China International Engineering Consulting Co., Ltd. organized a feasibility study report evaluation meeting for Xia-Zhangzhou-Quan Intercity Railway Line R1. The smooth progress of these key nodes has laid a solid foundation for the early start of the project.

According to the latest announcement, the Fujian Provincial Development and Reform Commission has issued a notice of competitive consultation on projects that can be reviewed. This indicates that the project is about to enter the substantive review and approval stage, one step closer to the official start of construction.

The construction of Xia-Zhangzhou-Quanzhen Intercity Railway Line R1 has a profound impact on promoting regional economic development, improving transportation convenience and promoting metropolitan integration. First of all, the project will greatly shorten the travel time between the three cities and improve the travel efficiency of residents in the region. Secondly, by connecting major transportation hubs and urban clusters, it will drive the economic development of the regions along the route and promote the efficient allocation and utilization of resources. Finally, the completion of the project will provide solid infrastructure support for the integrated development of Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quan metropolitan area, and promote the deep integration of economy, society and culture in the region.

The smooth promotion of the Xiamen, Zhangzhou and Quanzhou Intercity Railway R1 project is an important measure for Fujian Province to implement the national development strategy and promote regional economic integration. With the gradual implementation of the project, we have reason to believe that Xiamen Zhangquan metropolitan circle will usher in a better tomorrow. The intercity railway will not only become an important link between the three cities, but also inject new vitality and impetus into the economic and social development of the region. In the future, Xia-Zhangzhou-Quan Intercity Railway Line R1 will become an important part of the regional transportation network, providing residents along the line with more convenient and efficient travel services, and promoting the integrated development of Xia-Zhangzhou-quan metropolitan area to a new height.
