China's key canal starts ship tests ahead of opening

The Bingluo Channel in China, a major water project spanning 134.2 kilometers to connect the Pingtang River in Hengzhou city in Guangxi with Bibo Bay in the South China Sea, has begun passing ship trials in preparation for its scheduled opening next September. The tests involve the passage of four ships of different types, along with an assessment of the channel's performance under normal and challenging conditions such as floods and strong winds, using advanced technologies like BeiDou systems and drones. It is believed that this channel will reduce transportation time and lower logistics costs, strategically linking inland regions of China with ASEAN countries and global markets, thereby supporting maritime transportation and both domestic and international trade for China.
