Nanxi Bridge, Suspension bridge in Nanxi District, Yibin, China.
Nanxi Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Yangtze River and connecting two banks in Yibin with a steel structure. The facility carries expressway traffic as part of the region's major transportation corridor.
The bridge opened in 2013 as part of regional infrastructure expansion during a period of major transportation investments. It represents a turning point in connecting local traffic with broader regional trade routes.
The bridge links communities whose economies have long depended on the Yangtze River and its trade routes. Today it represents how the region balances its river-centered heritage with modern transportation needs.
The bridge serves as an active expressway link carrying both local and through traffic. Visitors should be aware it is an actively used transportation corridor, so caution is needed when approaching or viewing the structure.
The bridge spans an exceptionally long distance across the river, making it a notable example of modern suspension bridge engineering. This technical achievement allows efficient crossing at this location while maintaining the river's natural water flow.
