In recent years, Yizhou district in Hechi has continuously increased investment in urban road network construction and bridge repairs, carrying out urban road expansion and improving the road network to promote urban development.

Recently, the Jinshan Avenue (Phase I) project officially started construction. Jinshan Avenue has a total length of 2.35 kilometers and a red line width of 70 meters. It is an urban arterial road with eight two-lane lanes and it is connected to seven other roads. The project will boost the construction of the Garden Expo Park and the new Hechi College campus.

Roads in the northern part of the district haven't seen repairs for many years and have been severely damaged by the long-term impact of heavy vehicles, making it difficult for people to travel. This year, the district will conduct a road reconstruction plan of the north areas.

In recent years, the district has vigorously carried out a policy of urban road expansion and extension. The total length of the planned road expansion is 22.3 km this year, and the construction of the internal extension road network is basically completed.

To date, Yizhou district has completed and put into use such roads as Jiangbin Road, Yingbin Avenue, Longxi Road, Nanshan Road, Yipan Road, Quanxi Alley, Guimao Road, Hengyuan Road, Xishui Road, and Dianchang Road. The accumulated total investment of these constructions exceeds 160.4 million yuan ($23.17 million).
