Tuojiang River Bridge opens—a new landmark in Chengdu. Three world records: tallest inclined tower, largest-span asymmetric single-pylon cable-stayed bridge, and widest deck (86.7m). A stunning fusion of art and engineering, with illuminated night views and pedestrian walkways.


Recently, the Tuojiang River Bridge on the Chengdu–Jianyang–Renshou Expressway, built with the participation of CCCC, was officially opened to traffic.


The bridge has set three world records: the world's tallest inclined bridge tower, the world's largest-span asymmetrical curved cable-stayed bridge with a single pylon and twisted cable planes, and the world's widest bridge deck.


Standing 173 meters tall, the spatial curved single pylon with twisted cable planes leans eastward at an angle of 17.3 degrees, presenting a dynamic and elegant posture. The bridge deck reaches a maximum width of 86.7 meters, with pedestrian viewing walkways on both sides, offering night views of the river and spectacular illuminated bridge lighting. The 68 stay cables, like strings of a musical instrument, stretch gracefully across the span, showcasing a refined geometric elegance.


A perfect fusion of mechanics and mathematics, technology and art, this bridge has become another new landmark in Chengdu.
