The bridge spans a total length of 25.5 kilometers, with a 6.5-km land segment and a 19-km sea segment. It will incorporate modern construction techniques and new green low-carbon technologies, featuring four-lane roadways with a designed speed of 80 km per hour.
“Upon completion, the bridge will enable 24-hour rapid travel between the land and islands, freeing residents from the constraints of wind and waves for travel, and boosting goods transportation, and industrial development,” said Yu Jingxu, deputy head of Changhai.
