It consists of road project, bridge and culvert project, protective project, landscape project and drainage project. The construction of the proposed project will facilitate the swift connection among the districts and to achieve the ordered and smooth flow of passengers, freights and automobiles. It can activate the urban structure adjustment and improve the urban functions as well. The proposed project will also play an active role in furnishing the corresponding municipal supporting facilities, strengthening the urban serving function and expanding the urban scale. Moreover, the proposed project is located at the important characteristic area (called Binjiang) of Yibin. The proposed project on the riverside will provide the residents with a sound entertainment and leisure space and sightseeing along rivers. On the other hand, as a result of the smoother traffic and faster vehicle speed, the total exhaust emissions may be reduced and cause improvement on the ambient air and acoustic environment quality. 1.2 Project Component and Its Main Technical Specifications The proposed Project is located in Yibin City, Sichuan Province, consisting of road project, bridge and culvert project, protective project, landscape project and drainage project. And it is divided into two parts, namely Line A and Line B. Line A belongs to reconstruction and extension project, laying along the left banks of the Min River and the Yangtze River from the Min River Bridge at Jiuzhou Group, with a total length of 6688.51meters. Line B is a new road, arranged along the right bank of the Jinsha River from the Cultural S quare at the east district of Nan
