The bid 01 third section of the Shantou-Jieyang Expressway (Shantou to Jiexi), constructed by the China Railway Eighth Bureau Third Company, is expected to be completed on July 20.
The 86.5-kilometer-long Shantou-Jieyang Expressway, located in the eastern section of the Shantou-Zhanjiang (Shantou to Zhanjiang) Expressway that runs through the east-west of the "Nine Vertical, Five Horizontal, Two Ring-shaped" expressway network planned by Guangdong Province, provides shorter mileage than current Shenzhen-Shantou Expressway, further shortening the distance between eastern Guangdong and the Pearl River Delta. In the long run, it will play an important role in strengthening the economic ties between eastern Guangdong and the Pearl River Delta.

汕揭高速建设进展顺利
由中铁八局三公司负责施工的汕揭高速（汕头到揭西）01标第三段预计将于7月20日实现贯通。
全长86.5公里的汕揭高速公路位于广东省规划的“九纵五横两环”高速公路网中横贯东西的汕湛（汕头至湛江）高速公路东段，该通道较目前深汕高速公路营运里程要短，能进一步缩短粤东地区同珠三角地区的距离，对加强粤东和珠三角经济联系将发挥重要作用。
