Jingzhou Yangtze River Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Jingzhou, China.
The Jingzhou Yangtze River Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge spanning the Yangtze River with two main cable-supported sections of different lengths and several box girder segments. The structure sits atop tall concrete towers that support the asymmetrical design.
Construction started in the late 1990s and finished in the early 2000s, creating a major transportation connection across the Yangtze. This project significantly improved road links between Hubei's regions.
The bridge connects the regions of Hubei Province across the Yangtze River, which has shaped Chinese civilization for thousands of years.
The bridge carries four lanes of highway traffic that connects northern and southern regions of the country. You can view the structure from the riverbanks or observe its details while crossing.
The bridge features an asymmetrical design with two cable-stayed spans measuring 500 meters and 305 meters respectively, supported by tall concrete towers.
