The Nanjing Qixiashan Yangtze River Bridge, formerly Fourth Nanjing Yangtze Bridge, is a suspension bridge over the Yangtze River in Nanjing, China.[2] The bridge is the 11th longest span in the world and the sixth largest in China.[3][4] The bridge has renamed on 20 December 2019.[5]
Jiangsu province's first suspension bridge, it lies 10 km downstream of the second Yangtze River Bridge. The bridge connects Hengliang town, a section of Nanjing Raoyue, Nanjing-Nantong Highway, Hongguang village, towns like Long Pao, Xianling and Qilin in Jiangning District, and a section of Raoyue and Shanghai-Nanjing Highway.[6]
The 4th Nanjing Yangtze twin-tower bridge fashioned after standard expressway, boasts dual six-lane carriageway designed to maintain a 100–125 km an hour traffic.[7]
