Xingkangte Bridge, hailed as “the Primary Bridge across Sichuan and Tibet”, is now stepping up its construction. Measuring 1,411 meters long, the suspension bridge is a tough project featuring high-altitude surroundings with a strong seismic intensity and complex wind field status. It is scheduled open to traffic in 2018.
