Jijiang Yangtze River Bridge, Suspension bridge in Jiangjin District, China.
The Jijiang Yangtze River Bridge is a suspension structure that carries six lanes of traffic across the river for both vehicles and pedestrians. The construction spans considerable distance and serves as a major transportation route connecting districts.
Construction began in 2011 and finished in 2016, establishing modern transportation infrastructure across the river. Previously, ferries were the main way to cross between the two sides.
The bridge serves as a daily crossing point where residents and travelers experience direct contact with the Yangtze River landscape on their routine journeys.
The bridge is open to cars and pedestrians crossing directly without stops between the two sides. Crossing during daylight hours makes navigation easier and safer for all users.
The bridge completely replaced the ferry system that once dominated this crossing, changing how people experienced the journey. Travelers now see the river landscape from vehicle viewpoints rather than from the water itself.
