Hongshuihe Bridge Huiluo
惠罗高速红水河大桥
Hongshuihezhen, Guizhou, China
623 feet high / 190 meters high
1,667 foot span / 508 meter span
2017
One of the largest cable stayed bridges in either Guizhou or Guanxi Provinces, the Hongshuihe Bridge traverses over a deep reservoir from the Longtan dam located 65 kilometers downstream. With a central span of 508 meters, the engineers were able to cross the lake with no underwater piers. This required towers 195 meters tall supporting a configuration of 2x20 +213+508+185 meters. The total length of the bridge is 956 meters and is located at kilometer 113 on the G69 Huiluo Expressway.
The tallest tower measures 195 meters supporting a deck 27.7 meters wide with a height of 3.175 meters. The full reservoir level of 375 meters was reduced from a design level of 400 meters.

The giant Longtan Dam. The beam bridge in the background is over the Buliuhe river and is not the Hongshuihe Bridge which is located 65 kilometers upstream from the dam. The Buliuhe Bridge has a main span of 235 meters and is the highest beam bridge in Guanxi Province at 190 meters.
The Longtan Dam with the Hongshuihe River in the background.
