Shanghai Yangtze River Tunnel Bridge, Breathtaking Gateway to the Yangtze Estuary

Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge in Chongming District, Shanghai City, China

Introduction

The Shanghai Yangtze River Bridge project is an important transportation component connecting Shanghai and Chongming, including the Nanqu North Bridge. Starting from the northeast of Changxing Island, it crosses the northern port waters of the Yangtze River mouth to reach Chenjia Town on Chongming Island and connects to the Chongqi Tunnel project, with a total length of 16.63 kilometers. The tunnel-bridge scale of the bridge is the largest in the world, with a length of 25.5 kilometers, consisting of the largest diameter tunnel and the world's largest highway-railway combined cable-stayed bridge, which can be called the current largest tunnel-bridge combination project. At the same time, the record of the Tokyo Bay highway tunnel in Japan was broken at a depth of 55 meters underwater, and the river bottom tunnel did not leak. The design of the main tower of the Yangtze River Bridge adopts the "person" character single tower structure, crossing the flat bridge surface and reflecting the concept of unity between man and nature. Therefore, as the future "first bridge of the Yangtze River gateway", the beautiful and grand landscape is a major highlight of the bridge.
