Started construction on Saturday, the tunnel is the main part of a project to channel water from the Three Gorges Reservoir area to the Hanjiang River, a tributary of the Yangtze River. The project, started in July last year, is the first step of the follow-up construction of the country's South-to-North Water Diversion Project. Once completed, it is expected to enhance the water allocation capacity of the Hanjiang River Basin to further ensure water supply to the dry north. [Photo/Xinhua]
