Wujiang Bridge Meishi is another Guizhou giant crossing almost 300 meters above the great Wu River. The truss stiffened span of 680 meters is the largest on the route between Meitan and Shiqian. Further upstream the Wu River is the very similar Wujiang Bridge Zunyu which also has a span of 680 meters and is about 300 meters high.
Located at Km 57 the Meishi Bridge has a span configuration of 9x40 +680 +24x40 meters. The original level of the Wu River is hidden under a reservoir formed by the Silin Dam.
The route has two other high beam bridges including Shuitianba Bridge 5 kilometers to the north and the Tuntouhe Bridge just to the south.
