The Zhengzhou–Xuzhou High-Speed Railway is a high-speed rail line connecting the cities of Zhengzhou and Xuzhou in China.
The length of the line is 362.39 kilometers and the investment is estimated to be CN¥48.62 billion. It is one of the segments of the Xulan High-Speed Railway, a high-speed mainline from Lanzhou to Xuzhou, paralleling the existing Longhai Railway line.
