Xiushan Bridge, Suspension bridge in Daishan County, China.
Xiushan Bridge is a suspension bridge crossing the waters of Daishan County and serving as a major road link for the region. Its main span stretches 926 meters, with a 24-meter-wide deck designed to carry vehicle traffic.
Construction began in 2014 and was completed in 2019, representing a key infrastructure development in eastern China. The project connected previously less accessible areas within Daishan County.
The bridge represents current Chinese engineering capabilities and stands as a symbol of regional development within the national transportation network.
The bridge is part of National Highway 526 and handles daily vehicle traffic including cars, trucks, and buses, so congestion can occur during peak times. Pedestrians can walk across, though the crossing is designed primarily for motor vehicles.
The structure uses engineering techniques to manage the maritime environment and achieves a long span without intermediate support columns. This design approach allows the bridge to withstand the demands of the coastal setting.
