 opened to traffic, as was the case with the northwestern part.

By June 2001, the entire 4th Ring Road had been converted into an expressway-standard thoroughfare.

In early 2004, the speed limit was reduced to a unified 80 km/h (minimum speed limit: 50 km/h).

In September 2004, the 4th Ring Road underwent a massive sign change. Exit numberings were unified at last—bidirectionally (this was previously not the case).

A new overpass in the northern stretch was put into operation in October 2004, near the Beichen area.

Speed Limit

Previously: first lane, min. 80 km/h, max. 100 km/h; second lane, min. 70 km/h, max. 90 km/h; third lane, min. 60 km/h, max. 80 km/h; fourth lane, min. 50 km/h, max. 80 km/h; auxiliary road, uniform max. speed limit of 70 km/h. Readjusted in 2004 so that all lanes have a uniform min. speed limit of 50 km/h and a max. speed limit of 80 km/h; aux. road max. speed limit of 70 km/h remains unchanged.

Signs

When it was opened by 2001, the 4th Ring Road's signs were plagued by inconsistency. Mixing of Hanyu Pinyin and English
English language
English is a West Germanic language that arose in the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of England and spread into what was to become south-east Scotland under the influence of the Anglian medieval kingdom of Northumbria...

 on the signs confused drivers, but what was most confusing was the exit numbering. It so happened that the same exit had two different exit numbers -- one for each direction of the ring road.

Beijing authorities had three years' lapse before they dealt with the problem. Old signs were progressively replaced by newer signs which had standardised English and, finally, a new exit numbering system was in place. A sketch map of each exit, formerly only for expressways and isolated spots, was also introduced along with the new sign numbering.

Another change was the use of traffic sign language to signal traffic regulations instead of relying completely on Chinese
Chinese written language
Written Chinese comprises Chinese characters used to represent the Chinese language, and the rules about how they are arranged and punctuated. Chinese characters do not constitute an alphabet or a compact syllabary...

 Hanzi. Some bridge names (e.g. Sihe Bridge
Sihe Bridge
Sihe Bridge is a bridge in Beijing.It sits on the southern stretch of the 4th Ring Road.Before the 4th Ring Road signpost change in September 2004, it was named Huaxiang Bridge as it was close to the locality of Huaxiang, which literally means "Flower Village"...

) are also getting a name change at the same time.

The project was somewhat Herculean since 441 signs were to be replaced. Of those, exit and entrance signs formed 202 signs; other, mainly larger-sized signs, formed the remaining 239 signs. Earlier in the summer of 2004, similar measures for the 5th Ring Road (which had an absent-to-chaotic exit numbering system) were announced.

In a show of speed, within the first 100 hours, new exit numberings went up for pretty much all of the western stretch of the 4th Ring Road (despite new/old signs being alternated on a different stretch of the ring road).

Reaction to the new signs are mixed. There is a definitive plus side: the exits are now matched with their equivalent exit/bridge names on the 3rd and 5th

. Unfortunately, many complain of an information overkill. Signs are now complex enough to hold five different directions (on some bridges) -- way too much for the eye and brain to digest. Meanwhile, the mixing of lowercase and uppercase English in small font sizes is another concern.

Bad news for speeders: on both the 4th Ring Road and the 5th Ring Road, quite a number of speed traps—cameras—were put into place, along with the general sign change overall.
