The first part of an anti-collision equipment for the massive Shanghai-Nantong Yangtze River Bridge was transported to the bridge’s No.26 pier for installment on April 16.
Maritime departments in Nantong City and Zhangjiagang City worked closely to send three patrolling ships and ensure the smooth transportation from a wharf of Nantong Jiaolong Heavy Industry Development to the destination, passing different waterways.
The 92-ton part is 35.74 meters long, 14 meters wide, and 3 meters high.
The 11,072-meter-long bridge has a main span of 1,092 meters, making it the world's first road-rail cable-stayed bridge with a span of more than 1,000 meters. The bridge will have a six-lane expressway on its upper deck and four railway tracks on its lower deck.
