CR20G eyes BRI infrastructure as economies recover from pandemic

China Railway 20th Bureau Group Corp or CR20G, a Xi'an, Shaanxi province-based infrastructure project provider, is looking to win more infrastructure deals related to the Belt and Road Initiative, as more economies continue to recover from the COVID-19 epidemic, a company official said.

CR20G, a subsidiary of State-owned China Railway Construction Corp Ltd, recently completed the order for upgrading the two-lane and 6-kilometer-long Chiperoni-Khonjeni railway station road in the Thyolo district of southern Malawi. It used the double seal asphalt technology over nine months, said Song Rongjun, head of CR20G's overseas business department.

The company had earlier completed a clean water project for more than 600,000, of Angola in December, he said. The Thyolo road project, financed by the World Bank, is an important road connecting the M2 road and Chiperoni-Khonjeni railway station, with a design speed of 60 km per hour.
