Shibanpo Yangtze River Bridge, Road bridge in Yuzhong District, China.

The Shibanpo Yangtze River Bridge stretches 1,103 meters across the Yangtze River, connecting the Yuzhong and Nan'an districts with its concrete structure.

Opened in 1980 as the first road bridge over the Yangtze River in Chongqing, the initial construction required an investment of 64.68 million RMB.

The bridge represents a milestone in Chinese infrastructure development, marking the beginning of modern transportation connections across the Yangtze River in Chongqing.

The bridge system includes two parallel structures, with the newer span handling southbound traffic while the original bridge accommodates northbound vehicles.

The main span of the second bridge, measuring 330 meters, was manufactured in Wuhan and transported 1,000 kilometers upstream to Chongqing for installation.
