The village pavements construction project in Banpo, which directly benefits the transportation of production materials and everyday travel of the villagers, was successfully completed during the year, improving greatly the road facilities in the village and optimizing effectively the living environment of the mountain village. The project, featuring a total length of 5.96 kilometers, an average width of 3.55 meters, 107 sections of roads giving direct access to households, and an investment of 1,142,900 yuan from the Company, was completed and put into use on schedule.
