Jintang Bridge

Jintang Bridge is a major road bridge in Zhejiang that crosses the sea to link island and mainland areas. The structure uses both prestressed concrete and steel elements across its various spans to achieve this long-distance crossing.

The bridge opened in the early 2000s as a new crossing in the Zhoushan region. This project was part of broader coastal infrastructure development efforts in China at that time.

The bridge functions as a connection point between mainland China and the Zhoushan Archipelago, influencing the movement of goods and people across the region.

The bridge carries vehicle traffic between the two areas and is part of the larger highway system. Be aware it is a toll road that undergoes regular maintenance.

The bridge features a cable-stayed section in its middle that handles the longest spans without intermediate supports. This design approach allows the structure to bridge vast water distances efficiently.
