Shilianghe is one of 4 towering beam bridges on the 70 kilometer Xugu expressway that connects the city of Xuyong on the G76 with the city of Gulin and eventually the Chishui River gorge where it will connect with the Renchi expressway in Guizhou. Construction on the second phase of the expressway will not start until 2017 and will include a giant suspension bridge more then 300 meters high across the Chishui River.

The Shilianghe Bridge has 105 meter tall piers and is located about 30 kilometers east of Gulin city just 200 meters south of the older route X013 and the Gulin River.

Other high bridges on the expressway include the Luosizhai, Tiantanghe, Modaoxi, two crossings of the Gulin River and the giant Chishuihe Bridge Chajiaotan.
