Is the Liupanshan Tunnel a road tunnel or a railway tunnel?

The catalog item refers to a road tunnel through the Liupan Mountains, but the mountain range also has a separate railway tunnel with a similar name. The Liupanshan railway tunnel on the Tianshui-Pingliang line is reported at about 16.39 kilometres, so the two structures should not be merged.

Which expressway is associated with the named Liupanshan road tunnel?

The named highway tunnel is associated with the G22 Qinglan Expressway between Jingyuan and Longde in Ningxia. The Pingliang-to-Tianshui expressway is a separate G8513 project. [Liupan Mountains overview](https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%85%AD%E7%9B%98%E5%B1%B1)

Which tunnel actually belongs to the Pingliang-to-Tianshui expressway corridor?

The G8513 Pingliang-Mianyang Expressway's Pingliang-to-Tianshui section includes the Guangshan Tunnel, reported at about 9.65 kilometres.
