Zhangjinggao Yangtze River Bridge, the world's longest-span #bridge currently under #construction, has completed its first key guide #rope crossing in east China's Jiangsu Province. Workers used a 21-millimeter high-strength Dyneema rope towed by #vessels to span the 2,300-meter main channel directly. This efficient method avoids repeated rope replacement and cuts construction risks. The rope was lifted 62 meters above the water to guarantee safe river #navigation, marking the official start of the bridge's upper structure construction. Upon completion, the bridge will link the three cities of Zhangjiagang in Suzhou, Jingjiang in Taizhou and Rugao in Nantong.
