北京-乌鲁木齐高速公路
The Beijing–Ürümqi Expressway (Chinese: 北京-乌鲁木齐高速公路), commonly referred to as the Jingxin Expressway (Chinese: 京新高速公路) is an expressway that connects the cities of Beijing, China, and Ürümqi, Xinjiang. When complete, it will be 2,540 km (1,580 mi) in length.
Currently, several sections of the expressway are still under construction. This includes an entire section from Linhe District, Bayan Nur, Inner Mongolia, through Gansu to Turpan, Xinjiang. Also, currently in Beijing the Beijing–Ürümqi Expressway is a concurrency for its entire length with the G6 Beijing–Lhasa Expressway. However, a separate expressway will be built and the Beijing–Ürümqi Expressway will be rerouted.
