|
31-Jul-2002 - |
The Yangtze River, the longest in China, has become a vast showplace for Chinese bridges. So far, 29 have been built on the Yangtze. The number is soon expected to reach 40 as more bridges are being built or designed. Of the 29 bridges, eight are used for both highway and railway transportation, three for railway only and the remainder are highway bridges. The first bridge was built in Wuhan City, capital of central China's Hubei Province, in 1957. The bridges show that China has become one of the most advanced bridge builders. In 1950s, Mao Zedong, the late Chinese leader, said that the Yangtze River would take on a new look with 30 bridges. |
