The total length of the bridge is 798 meters, the bridge deck is a two-way four-lane, the design speed is 100 kilometers per hour, and both sides of the river are directly connected to the tunnel. The steel girder of the bridge is divided into 61 sections, and the total weight of the steel box girder is about 10,000 tons, which is equivalent to an Elphi Tower, and the maximum single section lifting weight is more than 180 tons.
