Located in Qingshan District, the bridge spans 737 meters with a 104-meter lift span and a 2,650-ton deck, setting multiple records among movable bridges in Asia.
Using four synchronized winch systems, the deck can rise 27 meters in just 9 minutes, allowing 5,000-ton vessels to pass safely during flood season.
Once fully open, it will cut travel time from Wuhan’s city center to the chemical industrial zone from 1 hour to only 15 minutes, boosting regional development across Wuhan, Ezhou, and Huanggang.
