Yangpu Bridge, in the downtown Shanghai area - and sister bridge to Nanpu Bridge, which was completed only two years earlier than Yangpu Bridge, both bridges built to ease the traffic over the Huangpu River in the heart of the city - was finally completed and opened to traffic in October 1993. Yangpu Bridge is understandably a source of immense engineering pride for the Chinese state, it is one of the longest cable-stayed suspension bridges in the world, with its longest span of 602 meters (i.e., as measured between the two supporting pylons/ main abutments). The most heavily trafficked bridge in Shanghai, Yangpu Bridge carries in excess of 5000 vehicles per hour during rush-hour traffic, linking the Pudong district in the east with the Puxi district in the east.

All modern suspension bridges are made to facilitate expansion and contraction due to daily temperature swings, especially during the summer heat, and Yangpu Bridge is no exception: its center section rises by some 10 centimeters and the bridge stretches by about 6 centimeters during the most intense midday heat.

By bike you can cross the river by the ferry just west of the bridge.
