Pingtang Bridge

Pingtang Bridge spans a river canyon using three towers with diamond-shaped forms and carries four lanes of expressway traffic. The structure connects major routes across the mountainous Guizhou province.

Construction began in the mid-2010s with a substantial investment and was completed in late 2019. The project represents a major infrastructure initiative for the region.

The tower designs reflect geometric patterns found in local ethnic art and traditions of the region. When you walk across or observe the structure, these shapes become part of how the bridge looks in the landscape.

You can cross the bridge during the day as it functions as a standard traffic route with regular vehicle flow. For the best views of the structure itself, observe it from the bridge or nearby vantage points along the expressway.

The towers hold the record for being the tallest reinforced concrete structures of their type on any cable-stayed bridge worldwide. This engineering achievement received international recognition for the advancement it represents.
