Yangshan Port is far from Shanghai. What are the advantages that make Singapore so afraid?

What Yangshan Port lacks is the free trade zone policy and inland logistics, such as the "Kela Canal".

Yangshan deepwater port has four advantages in site selection.

Shen Jun, executive deputy commander of the Deepwater Port Construction Command, said that Yangshan Deepwater Port has four advantages in site selection. By the year of 20 12, Yangshan deepwater port will have more than 30 berths, and the throughput will exceed150,000 TEU. Shen Jun said that the Yangshan Deepwater Port Area of Shanghai International Shipping Center is located in the southeast of Lu Chao Port in Nanhui, Shanghai, outside the mouth of Hangzhou Bay and the Yangtze River estuary, 27.5 kilometers away from Luchao Port in Nanhui and only 104 kilometers away from international routes. It is the nearest reasonable port site in Shanghai, with the water depth exceeding15m.

Advantage 1: It has superior conditions for building port areas and waterways with water depth of-15m. The tidal current in Yangshan sea area is strong, the sediment is not easy to deposit, and the seabed in the sea area has been basically stable for nearly a hundred years.

Advantage 2: it can ensure the safety of ship navigation and berthing. After repeated demonstration by model tests, the port engineering scheme shows that after the project is implemented, the natural conditions are basically unaffected, the original water depth can be maintained, the large and small Yangshan island chains form a natural barrier, and the berthing conditions are good.

Advantage 3: Engineering technology is economical and feasible. The geological conditions of the project waters are good, and the conditions for port construction are met; In addition, there are precedents for building long-distance sea-crossing bridges in the world.

Advantage 4: it conforms to the law of the development of ports in the world to the open sea.
