The Nanning–Pingxiang high-speed railway is a planned high-speed railway between Pingxiang and Nanning in southern China. The route would connect to railways in northern Vietnam, and this line is seen as the first stage of a high-speed network reaching as far as Singapore.[1][2]

Rather than being a central government initiative, this project is largely being coordinated at a regional level, in Guangxi.[3][4]

The line is being built in two stages: Nanning to Chongzuo, and Chongzuo to Pingxiang. Construction on the first stage is underway. Construction on the second stage is due to start by the end of 2020.[5]

History

Erection of the overhead wires for the Nanning to Chongzuo section began in December 2020.[6]

Route

Between Fusui South and Pingxiang East, the line runs roughly parallel to the Hunan–Guangxi railway.
