An integrated transportation network will get a major boost in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area this year as regional authorities seek to improve coordination.
The high-speed rail line between Beijing and Tianjin only takes 30 minutes. But transportation links connecting Hebei to the two municipalities have room to improve.
That situation is set to change this year. A freeway connecting Shijiazhuang, the capital of Hebei, to Tianjin is under construction.
