Introduction
Chongqing Changshou Chemical Industrial Park (Chongqing Changshou CIP) was approved and established by the Chongqing municipal government in 2001 as a municipality-level development park.
Chongqing Changshou CIP is located in the Changshou District, 50 km from Jiangbei International Airport, which ranked tenth in terms of passenger throughput (10.4 million persons) in China in 2007. Chongqing-Huaihua Railway and Chongqing-Lichuan Railway run through the park, while Chongqing-Shanghai Freeway and Chongqing-Fuzhou Freeway also intersect within the park. Additionally, Chongqing Changshou CIP is adjacent to the Changshou Deep-water Port, which has annual throughput of 20.9 million tons.
