南京长江大桥开放通车

China's first self-designed modern bridge over the Yangtze reopened to road traffic Saturday in the eastern city of Nanjing after a 26-month renovation¹.

 

中国首座自主设计的现代桥梁，南京长江大桥，经历26个月的整修之后周六再次开放通车。
 

 

As the first double-decked road-rail truss bridge designed by China, the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge first opened to traffic on the same day 50 years ago.

 

With an investment of 1.14 billion yuan (165 million U.S. dollars), the renovation started in 2016.

 

During the renovation, the highway traffic on the upper deck of the bridge was suspended while the railway on the lower deck was not disturbed.

 

"We were so proud of the bridge when it was built," Nanjing citizen Liu Yong said. "The bridge displays the Chinese people's innovative² spirit, which should be inherited by the younger generations."
