PINGTANG, Dec. 29, 2019 (Xinhua) --Pingtang Bridge in southwest China's Guizhou Province will open to traffic soon.
It boasts the highest concrete bridge tower in the world, making the once landlocked province leap at the chance of transportation development.
Located in Bouyei-Miao Autonomous Prefecture of Qiannan, the bridge, a colossal cable-supported viaduct with a span of 2,135 meters, will serve as a major connection on the Pingtang-Luodian Expressway above the Caodu River Canyon.
