Third railway plans upset residents

Residents in north Beijing are furious at plans to build a third overground railway near their community, already affected by the Beijing-Baotou railway and subway line 13.

Dingxiuqingxi community was informed on Nov 15 that a new railway linking Beijing to Shenyang, Liaoning province would pass close to their area, the Beijing News reported recently.

The community's residents were advised through bulletin advertising in the compound to contact the No 3 Railway Survey and Design Institute in Tianjin (RSDIT) for more information.
