Liuheng Bridge, Transportation bridge in Zhejiang, China
Liuheng Bridge is a major transportation link in Zhejiang that connects Liuheng Island to the Beilun district across Hangzhou Bay. The structure spans multiple waterways and islands to create a direct route between port areas.
Construction of the bridge started in 2021 as part of a broader infrastructure development plan for eastern China. The project aimed to improve connectivity between port areas and neighboring districts.
The bridge represents Chinese engineering capabilities through its complex design, incorporating a three-tower cable-stayed structure and suspension segments across maritime channels.
The bridge includes dedicated lanes for heavy container traffic and significantly reduces travel time between port areas. Visitors should expect that most vehicles on this route are commercial trucks.
The bridge features two notable structural segments: a major suspension span at Shuangyumen and a giant cable-stayed section at Qinglongmen. This technical combination allows the structure to efficiently handle varying water depths and traffic demands.
