Wanzhou Railway Bridge

The Wanzhou Railway Bridge extends 1,106 meters across the Yangtze River, featuring a steel truss arch design with a main span of 360 meters.

The construction of this infrastructure project commenced in December 2002 and reached completion in 2005, marking a new era for railway transportation in the region.

The bridge represents a meeting point between traditional river navigation and modern rail transport, connecting communities along the Yangtze River basin.

The structure carries the Yichang-Wanzhou Railway line, enabling efficient movement of passengers and cargo between eastern and western regions of China.

The bridge maintains a height of 133 meters above the river, allowing large vessels to pass beneath while supporting heavy rail traffic overhead.
