Hangzhou Bay Sea Bridge

Photo taken on Sept. 13, 2011 shows the second cross-sea bridge designed to link the city of Jiaxing and Shaoxing at Hangzhou Bay in east China's Zhejiang Province. With a total investment of around 13.9 billion yuan (2.15 billion U.S. dollars), the Jiaxing-Shaoxing bridge is expected to halve the journey between Shaoxing and Shanghai to 1.5 hours when it opens to traffic in 2012. Over 63% of the construction of the bridge has been completed by far. (Xinhua/Xu Yu)(mp)
