On January 18, Jinan Yellow River Phoenix Bridge, the world's largest span and widest three-tower self-anchored suspension bridge constructed by CCCC Second Navigation Bureau, was officially opened to traffic.

The reason why the design is so wide is to comprehensively consider the intensive utilization of the resources of the yellow channel, reduce the project scale, save the project investment, and take into account factors such as landscape effect and driving safety.

The side of the bridge looks like a "mountain" character, and will use the lighting theme of "Huashan Memory", and use multiple sets of high-power spotlights with poles to illuminate the bridge tower from three directions, organically integrated into the ecological landscape belt of the Yellow River.
