Hainan just leveled up its transportation game! The province recently completed a major upgrade to the G98 Expressway's eastern section – its first-ever expansion from 4 to 8 lanes. The new Xiangou Interchange in Ding'an County now features a full cloverleaf design that's got drivers buzzing 🐝
Construction crews broke ground in 2024 to create this double-decker traffic solution. The main stretch now allows 120 km/h speeds, while ramps handle 40 km/h flows – perfect for those TikTok-worthy drone shots of synchronized vehicles! 🚁
Locals are already celebrating shorter commutes between Xiangou Town and urban hubs. This “traffic glow-up” couldn't come at a better time, with Hainan positioning itself as both a tropical paradise 🌴 and economic hotspot 💼 in 2025.
