Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is the first railway and highway bridge built on the Yangtze River in China.
The total length of the whole bridge is1670m, in which the main bridge1156m, the north bank approach bridge is 303m, and the south bank approach bridge is 2 1 1 m..
From the basement to the highway bridge deck, the height is 80 meters, and the lower floor is a two-lane railway bridge with a width of 14.5 meters. Two trains can leave at the same time.
The upper floor is a highway bridge with a width of 22.5 meters, in which: carriageway 18 meters, 4 lanes; The sidewalks on both sides of the roadway are 2.25m each.
The bridge is a triple continuous bridge with 3 holes in each connection and 9 holes in ***8 piers.
The span of each hole is128m, and the ship can sail all the year round.
At both ends of the main bridge, there are bridgehead with ethnic style, each 35 meters high, with 7 floors from the lobby on the ground floor to the pavilion, and there are electric elevators for people to get up and down.
The annex buildings are beautifully coordinated with various decorations, and the whole bridge is extremely magnificent.
If you take the electric elevator from the ground floor, you can visit the bridge deck directly. Looking around, the three towns in Wuhan are connected into one, and the Jinghan and Yuehan railways separated by the Yangtze River have also been opened one after another, forming a complete Beijing-Guangzhou line, which makes people relaxed and imaginative. It's really "a bridge flies north and south, and natural hazards become a thoroughfare."
Edit the characteristics of this part of the bridge.
Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is located between Guishan in Hanyang and Sheshan in Wuchang. It is the first bridge built on the Yangtze River as a "natural moat" after the founding of New China. It is also the first bridge of the Yangtze River since ancient times. It is the first railway and highway bridge in China. Upon completion, it will become the main artery connecting the north and south of China, and play an important role in promoting the economic development of the north and south.
Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge 1 955 September1Completed and opened to traffic1957 June10/0 15. The construction of the bridge was helped by the Soviet Union at that time, and Soviet experts provided a lot of guidance for the design and construction of the bridge. But after the breakdown of Sino-Soviet relations, the Soviet Union * * *.
After the completion of the bridge, the three towns in Wuhan will be integrated, which will greatly promote the development of Wuhan.
From a national macro point of view, the significance of the completion of the bridge is to connect the Beijing-Guangzhou railway and make the north-south railway transportation of the Yangtze River smooth.
* * * The poem "One Bridge flies north and south, and the natural moat becomes a thoroughfare" describes the momentum and important role of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge.
Since its completion, the bridge has been a landmark building in Wuhan.
Total length of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge 1, 670.4 meters. The main bridge is a double-deck steel-wood structure beam bridge for railway and highway. The upper floor is a highway bridge, and the lower floor is a double-track railway bridge. The bridge has eight piers and nine holes, each with a span of 1.28 m, and ships of 10,000 tons can pass under the bridge. Except for the seventh pier, all eight piers are drilled with large pipe columns. this is
This bridge, like a dancing rainbow, paved a smooth road in the Yangtze River moat.
Ping-Han Railway and Yue-Han Railway were connected (the two lines were renamed Beijing-Guangzhou Railway), and the traffic between north and south changed fundamentally, which greatly promoted the construction process of Wuhan railway hub, making Wuhan, known as the thoroughfare of nine provinces, an important railway hub in China.
After the bridge was opened to traffic, the social and economic benefits were enormous. In the first five years, the transportation volume reached more than 80 million tons, and the train transportation time was shortened by about 24 million trips, saving freight costs more than the whole project cost.
With the continuous development of national economy, the throughput of bridges is increasing, and the direct and indirect economic benefits are even more difficult to count, which plays an irreplaceable role in national economic construction.
In August and September 2002, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge was overhauled for the first time.
Experts from China Academy of Sciences estimate that the service life of this bridge is at least 100 years.
Today, there are six bridges on the Yangtze River in Wuhan, namely Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge No.3 (Baishazhou Bridge), Junshan Yangtze River Bridge, Yangluo Yangtze River Bridge and Tianxingzhou Yangtze River Bridge.

The architectural design of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is rich in China national architectural features. There are chest-high railings on both sides of the bridge deck, and various birds and animals are cast on the railings. On both sides of the bridge are symmetrical flower boards, the contents of which are mostly based on China's folklore and fairy tales, such as proud as a peacock, Carp Beating Lotus, Magpie Noisy Plum, Jade Rabbit and Jingui, etc., which have national characteristics. At both ends of the bridge is a bridgehead about 35 meters high, from the bottom hall to the top pavilion, a total of seven floors. The pavilion at the bridge head is square and octagonal, with double eaves and a red ball dome. There are elevators and escalators at the bridgehead for pedestrians to get on and off, and there are large clay sculptures of heroes who built the bridge in the hall for tourists to watch, appreciate, recall the lost years and feel the heroic spirit.
Together with Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge Monument and Observation Deck will be built. They are near Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. This monument is 6 meters high and weighs more than 20 tons. In the south, the poem "A bridge flies north and south, and a moat becomes a thoroughfare" is engraved. The observation deck is one of the best places for tourists to enjoy the Yangtze River and see the bridge.
Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge embodies the ingenuity of designers and the superb skills of builders.
Eight giant piers stand in the middle of the river, and the herringbone truss and diamond-shaped auxiliary vertical rods make the huge steel beams reveal a delicate atmosphere; The 35-meter-high abutment stands on both banks, adding majestic momentum to the bridge.
The bridge connects Qingchuan Pavilion, Guishan, Lianhua Lake, Guishan TV Tower and Guqintai to Sheshan, Yellow Crane Tower, Shouyiyuan and Pengliuyang Road, which complement each other and form a grand, continuous and beautiful scenic spot group.
It is not only a beautiful scenery on the Yangtze River, but also a historical monument, leaving an indelible impression on the life of Jiangcheng people.

Edit this behind-the-scenes story
Fifty years ago, "a wave of joy leapt across the river: Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge was opened to traffic! For thousands of years, the Yangtze River moat has a history of ships without bridges, ending with' one bridge flying north and south and the moat becoming a thoroughfare'. "
Over the past 50 years, the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge has stood tall on the great river, shouldering the load that more than 60 cars pass every minute and every 6 minutes 1 train passes. It has withstood the baptism of countless floods and strong winds, and has also withstood the test of more than 70 collision accidents.
Experts have recently come to the conclusion that the pier, steel beam and other main structures of the bridge can be used for more than 100 years.
"Gather outstanding talents from all over the country to build the first bridge over the Yangtze River"
Building a Yangtze River Bridge in Wuhan is the dream of several generations.
There was an idea in the Qing dynasty, and there was a plan in Dr. Sun Yat-sen's General Plan for Governing the Country, but it was not implemented because of the weak national strength at that time.
At the beginning of the founding of New China, under the background that the country gave priority to the development of heavy industry, the importance of railway transportation was highlighted, and the construction of the Yangtze River Graben Bridge was put on the agenda.
In new China, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge is listed as the key project of the first five-year plan.
At the beginning of 1950, the Central People * * instructed the Ministry of Railways to prepare for the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, and set up a "Wuhan Bridge Survey and Drilling Team" to start the preparatory work for the bridge.
Fang Qinhan, a bridge expert who participated in the design and construction of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge and an academician of China Academy of Engineering, recalled that at that time, it could be said that the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge was built with the strength of the whole country, and the best experts at that time were convened and the most advanced equipment in the country was mobilized.
Under the mobilization order of "Gathering National Excellent Talents to Build the First Yangtze River Bridge", outstanding bridge experts and technicians from all over the country gathered in Wuhan.
Some are from the Beijing Bridge Office of the Ministry of Railways, and some are from Mr. Mao Yisheng's China Bridge Company; Some are from Guangzhou Railway Bureau in the south, and some are from Harbin Railway Bureau in the northeast ... The Technical Advisory Committee of Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge was established in February 1955, with Mao Yisheng as its director and Luo Ying, Tao Shuzeng, Brandon Lee, Zhang Wei and Liang Sicheng as its members.
The steel and other materials and equipment needed to build this bridge have won the support of the people all over the country.
Combatants forget their jobs, regardless of pay and conditions. Everyone takes charge of the construction site, eats at the construction site and lives at the construction site.
In order to repair the bridge, the Ministry of Railways also invited Xilin, a former Soviet bridge expert and academician of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, to form a 28-member expert group for technical guidance.

Edit this passage about Wuhan Bridge.
Regarding this bridge in Wuhan, both martial artists and outsiders will have deep memories and feelings.
Many people's understanding of Wuhan actually began with the first Yangtze River Bridge.
Living in Wuhan, in addition to small bridges everywhere, there are many trademarks and commodities named after bridges. The name of the bridge in the name and the posture of the bridge in the advertisement have become a major part of Wuhan's urban culture and one of the charms of Wuhan.
Who would have thought that in the history of the three towns of Wuhan in Jiangcheng, this bridge once carried people's dreams for thousands of years. Now, thousands of bridges stand proudly, and the bridge has become the most dazzling scenery in this city.
The bridge pushes the urban area of Wuhan from the inner ring to the central ring and the outer ring, which not only speeds up the traffic in the city and shortens people's travel time, but also connects Wuhan with neighboring provinces and cities, highlighting the geographical advantages of Wuhan as a thoroughfare of nine provinces.
1957 5438+00 In June, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, the first bridge of Wanli Yangtze River, was completed and opened to traffic, connecting the Guangdong-Han Railway and opening the main artery of Beijing-Guangzhou Railway. From then on, "a bridge flies north and south, and the moat becomes a thoroughfare."
Thirty-eight years later, 1995, the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge, which was completed in four years, held a grand opening ceremony, which changed the traffic pattern of the three towns in Wuhan, and made Hankou, Wuchang and Hanyang, which were separated by the Yangtze River and Hanshui, form a 28-kilometer-long traffic inner ring for the first time.
Zhonghuan Road, which consists of Baishazhou Yangtze River Bridge, Tianxingzhou Yangtze River Bridge and Hanjiang Changfeng Bridge, is 88 kilometers long. At present, the West Ring Road has been opened to traffic, and the South and North Rings have also been opened one after another. It is said that the East Ring Road is expected to be completed and opened to traffic next year.
Baishazhou Yangtze River Bridge, which was opened to traffic on September 8, 2000, connects Huang Wu Expressway and Hu Rong National Highway in the north and 107, 3 16 National Highway in the south.
Tianxingzhou Yangtze River Bridge, which is under intense construction, will be the second river-crossing passage of Wuhan Railway and an important passage of the Beijing-Guangzhou high-speed passenger dedicated line to be built soon.
200 1,1February, Wuhan Junshan Yangtze River Highway Bridge was opened as the "throat" of Beijing-Zhuhai Expressway crossing the Yangtze River natural graben. At this point, Junshan, Yangluo Yangtze River Bridge and Caidian Hanjiang Bridge form a big outer ring with a total length of188km, all of which have been completed and opened to traffic except Yangluo Yangtze River Bridge.
Yangluo Yangtze River Highway Bridge, which is under intense construction, is a control project in the northeast section of Wuhan Ring Highway. Together with Junshan Bridge, it is the river-crossing passage of Wuhan Ring Road, the main trunk line of Beijing-Zhuhai-Shanghai-Chengdu National Highway, which is of great significance to improve the traffic capacity of Beijing-Zhuhai-Shanghai-Chengdu National Highway and strengthen Wuhan's position as an important national transportation hub.
The bridge, from the water surface to the road, and then to the underground, has realized the leap from plane to three-dimensional traffic in Wuhan.
After the first phase of Hankou Light Rail Line (from Yongqing to Zongguan) has been in operation for more than one year, in June 5438+February 65438+May 2005, the second phase of Wuhan Light Rail Project with a total investment of 4.4 billion yuan was officially started, starting from Zongguan Station in Hankou in the west and extending to the end of Wu Dong Avenue in the west.
The project is expected to be completed in 2009.
By then, a long bridge in the air will extend from Dongxihu at the westernmost end of Hankou to the easternmost levee.
Another special underground bridge, the cross-river tunnel, was also started in Wuhan, which will undoubtedly be the first one in the construction of the Yangtze River.
In addition, Wuhan Square, the underpass in front of Wuhan Theatre, Hong Kong Road Overpass, Yuejiazui Overpass, etc. With the speed of dozens of pedestrian overpasses and nearly ten expressway overpasses every year, a large number of pedestrian overpasses, underpasses, vertical bridges and viaducts have been erected in Jiangcheng in recent years, truly realizing the leap from plane traffic to three-dimensional traffic.
It is said that there are more than 1300 bridges in Wu Hanyou, including footbridges, overpasses, river-crossing highway bridges, highway-railway bridges and agricultural bridges. It covers cable-stayed bridges, tied bridges, hyperbolic bridges, steel structures, prestressed reinforced concrete, reinforced concrete and other structural forms.
Bridge is not only an indispensable traffic artery for Wuhan citizens, but also a unique cultural landscape of the city.
Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge with exquisite Chinese painting guardrail, Baishazhou Yangtze River Bridge with rhombic structure, Junshan Yangtze River Bridge with H-shaped vase, Yangluo Yangtze River Bridge with giant harp, Qingchuan Bridge at the sight of rainbow and Jianghan Fifth Bridge with wild geese spreading their wings are really one bridge and one scene.
Not only on the rivers, but also in parks, squares and residential areas in Jiangcheng, there are a large number of landscape bridges built purely for landscaping.
The famous 23-hole bridge in East Lake, the newly-built Qinghe Bridge with strong Chu culture, the Dragon Bridge in Zhongshan Park and the covered bridge in Dijiao Park ... In Wuhan, a city with hundreds of lakes, a park without bridge decoration is unimaginable.
