Construction of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway is making smooth progress, with land requisitions and demolition work almost finished along the Beijing section, the city's urban development authority said on Wednesday.

The 174-kilometer railway between Beijing and Zhangjia-kou in Hebei province - scheduled to begin operating at the end of 2019 - involves a construction corridor extending almost 64 km from Beijing's downtown to its northwest Yanqing district, with the rest of the line winding through the mountains of Hebei.

With support from local governments, affected residents and construction contractors, 98 percent of the land needed along the line in Beijing has been acquired, and demolitions of buildings within the area are now complete, according to the Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban Development.
