The Xizang Autonomous Region Development and Reform Commission announced plans to construct 170 key projects in 2025, with a total investment of 203 billion yuan (approximately $28.3 billion), which will significantly boost the region's socioeconomic development. During the January-February period, the restart and commencement rate for major projects across Xizang reached 80.2%, with 12.91 billion yuan (approximately $1.8 billion) already invested - achieving 48% of the first quarter's target.

The Nyidang Grand Bridge, a key infrastructure project in Lhasa, is currently under steady construction. With a total investment of 394 million yuan (approximately $54.6 million), the 1.81-kilometer bridge will span the Lhasa River, connecting Dagar Village in Liuwu New District to Nyidang Industrial Park in Quxu County's Nyidang Township. Designed with a 23.5-meter-wide deck featuring dual four lanes and a speed limit of 50 km/h, the project is scheduled for completion within a 24-month construction period. At the construction site, various heavy machinery operates in coordinated rhythm while workers conduct well-organized construction activities. Upon completion, the bridge will serve as a vital transportation link integrating the Lhasa Airport Expressway with both the Dagar area and Nyidang Industrial Park, significantly enhancing regional connectivity.

Construction is in full swing at the northern section of the Barkhor Ancient City infrastructure upgrade project in Lhasa, where workers are diligently progressing with road pipeline network renovations and drainage system improvements. "To ensure the project meets quality standards and completes on schedule, we will deploy additional workforce and equipment while optimizing our construction timeline," said Padma Dorje, the project supervisor. "We're committed to finishing all work by early June to minimize disruption to public transportation."

The Xizang Autonomous Region Development and Reform Commission has implemented a comprehensive construction plan to facilitate the smooth progress of key projects across the region. By clearly defining departmental responsibilities and coordinating implementation efforts, this initiative aims to create a solid foundation for sustained and healthy socioeconomic development throughout Xizang.
