An expressway under construction near the border between China and North Korea has raised some eyebrows in light of recent news of North Korea’s nuclear missile tests.
The expressway, called the G1112 Ji’an-Shuangliao Expressway, which was designed to connect the two cities in the northeastern Chinese province of Jilin, has been in construction since at least 2010, according to Chinese media reports. The road is making its way from Shuangliao, at the western border of the province, to the other end, which borders North Korea.
