China Railway Group Limited has announced the official opening of the Changshan River Bridge on the Shanghai-Hangzhou Expressway. Constructed by China Railway Major Bridge Engineering Group, the new bridge features a 112-meter span simply supported steel truss girder design with a main navigational clearance of 7 meters, enabling the smooth passage of triple-deck container vessels. This upgrade replaces an older bridge with limited clearance and significantly enhances container throughput capacity for northern Zhejiang's inland waterways. The project is expected to boost the economic development of ports such as Jiaxing Port and Ningbo-Zhoushan Port, while promoting sea-river intermodal transport and a shift toward containerized and land-to-water shipping.
