Huning Highway ( Shanghai to Nanjing ) was put into operation in 1996 with a total length of 171 miles ( 274km ). The highway bypasses major cities along the eastern coast of China including Kunshan, Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou, Zhengjiang, Jurong and Nanjing. It takes 160 minutes for the ride from Shanghai to Nanjing on the highway. Highway Huhang ( Shanghai to Hangzhou ) has been completed, which makes the distance between Shanghai and Hangzhou 122 miles ( 195km ) equivalent to a ride of only 100 minutes.

Elevated Inner city free way becomes rather convenient after the completion of the Nanpu Bridge, Yangpu Bridge, Inner City Loop and Elevated North and South City Loop.
