The rapid development of China’s high-speed railway sector has attracted significant attention from the rest of the world, particularly those countries which are launching their ambitious high speed railway program to stimulate economic growth in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. Experience of Chinese decision makers, engineers and contractors accumulated in the successful planning and implementation of the gigantic high speed rail networks is of great value to be examined to provide best practices to following projects, not just in China. This study identified and discussed four aspects of best practices in high-speed railway construction in China, i.e., workforce management, technological innovation, land acquisition, and environmental protection based on a comparative analysis of several newly built high-speed railway project cases.
