The new xxxxxxx bridge is another high pier and beam viaduct on the greatest high bridge railway in the world - the Yichang to Wanzhou Railway line. With more than 70 percent of the route either in a tunnel or on a bridge, the complex geology of the terrain has forced the engineers to overcome landslides, falling rock and steep terrain. The line has an unprecedented 4 bridges that exceed 100 meters in height including Luobuxi, Mashuihe and Dukouhe.
Massive, conical shaped piers support two main spans of 381 feet (116 mtrs). The total length of the bridge is 3,028 feet (923 mtrs).
