Shanghai Yangtze River Tunnel-Bridge
上海长江隧桥
A tunnel-and-bridge link connecting Pudong, Changxing Island and Chongming Island, with the bridge section crossing the Yangtze Estuary for sweeping views.
The Shanghai Yangtze River Tunnel-Bridge opened to traffic in 2009. It consists of the Yangtze River tunnel from Pudong to Changxing Island and the Yangtze River bridge from Changxing Island to Chongming Island, and it is the main route to and from Chongming. The bridge section is about 10 km long. Drivers and bus passengers can see the broad Yangtze estuary and cargo ships passing through, making it the first scenic highlight of the trip to the island. Stopping and photography are not allowed on the bridge, but you can view the entire span from the riverbank on the Chenjia Town side. Traffic congestion is common at peak holiday times, so travel off-peak if possible.
