CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- With the completion and commissioning of the Yangtze River Three Gorges Project, the old streets below the 175-meter water level in Zhongxian County, located in the heart of the reservoir area, were all demolished, leaving the ruins in disarray. In 2006, in order to open up the city’s accessible roads and connect Zhongzhou Avenue with the Shanghai - Chongqing Expressway, Zhongxian County started to build its Binjiang (riverside) Road and carry out high-specification greening and beautification.

In September 2016, with the Mingyuxi 2nd Bridge opened to the public, citizens can drive from Binjiang road along Zhongzhou Avenue straight to the highway, so that “the big problem” city traffic congestion is solved. Today, it is not only fast and convenient for citizens to get in and out of the city, but also can go to Binjiang Road for fitness view, as Binjiang Road has become a beautiful scenery in Zhongxian County.
