[The basic framework of China's digital twin water conservancy system has been formed]The framework of China's digital twin water conservancy system has been basically formed, and efforts are being made to continuously promote better water treatment outcomes for the benefit of the people. In the construction of digital twin watersheds, 94 pilot tasks have been fully completed, and a number of replicable and promotable typical practice cases have been created; In terms of the construction of digital twin water networks, 14 provincial-level water network pilot zones will be promoted in batches to gradually improve the digital control efficiency of water networks; In the construction of digital twin water conservancy projects, 11 key projects such as the Three Gorges Dam and the South to North Water Diversion Project have been put into practical application. 49 digital twin irrigation areas have been piloted, and 230 digital twin rural water supply projects have achieved phased results.

On April 16, 2026, the Wenyu section of the Hangzhou Taizhou high-speed railway officially started static acceptance, and the main project was basically completed. The main line of this section is 37 kilometers long, with a designed speed of 350 kilometers per hour and a bridge tunnel ratio of 90.34%. The Lijiashan Tunnel is a controlled project for the entire line. After acceptance, it will be transferred to joint debugging and testing, and is expected to be opened within the year. At that time, it will end the history of Yuhuan not being connected to railways and help Zhejiang build a 1-hour high-speed railway transportation circle. Editor/Cheng Liting
