Pingtan Strait Rail-Road Bridge, Rail-road bridge in Fuzhou, China

The Pingtan Strait Rail-Road Bridge spans 16.3 kilometers across the Haitan Strait, featuring a two-level structure with railways below and highways above.

Construction of the bridge began in November 2013, with the road section opening in October 2020 and the railway section starting operations in December 2020.

The bridge serves as a vital connection between mainland China and Pingtan Island, supporting the development of the Pingtan Comprehensive Experimental Zone.

The upper deck carries six lanes of highway traffic at 100 kilometers per hour, while the lower deck accommodates two railway tracks for trains at 200 kilometers per hour.

The bridge required 1.24 million tons of steel and 2.94 million cubic meters of concrete, making it the largest material consumption in bridge construction worldwide.
