Recently, the Zhou Deng Expressway, which provides a fast access channel for Shanghai East Station and Pudong Airport T3 Terminal, has officially started construction and is expected to be fully completed by the end of 2026. This important transportation infrastructure project will greatly promote the improvement and enhancement of Shanghai's urban skeleton road network function, especially the high-speed road network structure in the central area of Pudong will be further strengthened and improved.

The Zhou Deng Expressway starts from Zhouyuan Road west of S3 and ends at G1503 in the east, with a total length of 17.2 kilometers. The project will pass through Zhoupu Town, Kangqiao Town, Chuansha Town, and Zhuqiao Town along the route, becoming an important component of the Pudong hub's fast in and fast out system connection. The completion of this expressway will effectively ensure the transportation function of Pudong hub and further improve the external communication channels of Pudong hub.

In terms of design and construction, the Zhou Deng Expressway adopts a scale layout of elevated two-way 6-lane and ground auxiliary road two-way 6-lane to ensure smooth traffic flow. There are a total of 8 pairs of parallel ramp entrances and exits along the route, located on the west side of Kangxin Road, the east side of Shenjiang Road, the west side of Liufeng Road, the east side of Nanliu Road, both sides of Chuansha Road, the west side of Lingkong Road, and the west side of Chuannan Feng Road, providing convenient access options for drivers.

In addition, important nodes of the Zhou Deng Expressway include the renovation of the S2 and S3 hub interchanges, as well as the Pudong Canal Bridge Yuanrong Bridge node. The optimization and renovation of these key nodes will further enhance the traffic capacity and safety of the expressway.

The construction of Zhou Deng Expressway is not only of great significance for improving urban transportation, but also an important guarantee for the road network of the southern area of Disney and international tourist resorts. It will help enhance the communication and connection between towns such as Zhuqiao, Chuansha, Zhoupu, and Kangqiao and the central urban area, build an east-west passenger transportation corridor in the central area of Pudong, and provide more convenient choices for citizens' travel.

It is worth mentioning that the construction of the Zhou Deng Expressway will also achieve the integration of Shanghai East Station and the urban area. From Shanghai East Station, it only takes 30 minutes to reach the urban center of Pudong New Area, which will greatly shorten the commuting time of citizens and improve travel efficiency.

In addition, the construction of ground roads in the Zhou Deng Expressway project will also break through some breakpoints, greatly improving the travel conditions of residents along the route. This measure will effectively alleviate the traffic pressure in the surrounding areas and improve the quality of life of residents. Editor/Cheng Liting
