Expressways in Shanghai - Part II

By Jian Shuo Wang on 2008-03-23 15:07 · Roads

The illustration of this map below (I draw it today), and the description of the previous entry: Expressways of Shanghai

Update on this map:

A6, A7, and A5 is completed, as well as the A30 south section.

Please continue this article with part I, where I introduced all these expressways.

Update: here is the “official” version of the same map as I draw - much more professional, and more useful.

Anyone can tell me what the average traffic speed on these freeways is, please? I want to find out if I live in Shanghai for a while... Thanks!

The speed limit is typically 110 KM, while some limit to 120 KM

thanks, Jian. and how about actual traffic's average speed? eg. during rush hours, business daytime, weekend, and midnight?

Typically, you can expect 60 KM/hour, and in some sections, like all the expressway near A20, it can be slower in rush hours. In sections outside A30, it is common that people drive at around 140 KM/hour.
