History

Jingcheng Expressway within the 5th Ring Road (2003 image)
Jingkai Expressway near Yuquanying heading towards Beijing (2004 image)
Jingkai Expressway at Huangcun heading towards Beijing (2002 image)

The first section of the expressway opened in the north of Beijing in 2002. Northeast of Beijing the 210 kilometre section to Chengde was known as the Jingcheng expressway(Chinese: 京承高速公路; pinyin: Jīngchéng Gāosù Gōnglù) and south, the section to Kaifeng was known as the Jingkai Expressway (京开高速公路, Hanyu Pinyin: Jīngkāi Gāosù Gōnglù). Expressway naming was standardised across China in 2009 and the entire length from Daqing to Guangzhou became the G45 expressway.
