Henan's Jingwu Yellow River Bridge, spanning 15.2 km with 220,000 tonnes of steel, sets two national records. Its 182‑m pylon, inspired by Shang Dynasty bronze, uses carbon‑fiber cables and eco‑friendly construction. Linking Central Plains with key regions, it fuels high‑quality development across the Yellow River Basin. 

Take a look at Henan's Anyang-Luoshan Expressway, where traffic flows steadily across the Jingwu Yellow River Bridge. This "steel dragon" spanning the Yellow River from north to south now carries the pulse of regional development with its majestic presence. The bridge stretches 15.223 kilometers in length and, with a steel structure weight of 220,000 tonnes, sets two domestic records: the longest highway bridge across the Yellow River and the largest use of steel structures in an inland region.

Standing 182 meters tall, the main pylon draws its design inspiration from the Shang Dynasty bronze "wine vessel" (zun), featuring a nationally pioneering steel shell concrete structure without longitudinal reinforcement. The stay cables are made of carbon fiber composite materials embedded with optical fibers, combining stability, aesthetics, and communication functionality. During construction, ultra-long-distance incremental launching techniques were employed, and multiple technologies achieved a win-win outcome between engineering and ecology. 

As a vital link connecting the Central Plains with the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River urban agglomeration, the Jingwu Yellow River Bridge is injecting strong momentum into the high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin.
