The national arteries of Beijing-Guangzhou multiple-track electric railway, the 106 and 107 National Highway run through the city in north-south direction, providing unimpeded channels for travelers. Trains stretch out towards north to Changsha City of Hunan Province, and south to Guangzhou City of Guangdong Province by departing in the morning and arriving at noon. Entering 21st century, Beijing-Zhuzhou expressway makes Chenzhou's transportation more convenient and even more powerful.
