Construction has begun on a subway line linking Beijing and neighboring Hebei province after a feasibility study was approved for a local section by the Hebei Development and Reform Commission, Beijing Daily reported.

The Beijing Subway Line 22, or Pinggu Line, has a length of 81 kilometers and passes three districts in the capital — Chaoyang, Tongzhou and Pinggu — as well as Sanhe city in Langfang, Hebei.
