First highway bridge connecting China and Russia under construction

Measuring 1,284 meters long and 14.5 meters wide, the bridge across the Heilongjiang River, known in Russia as the Amur River, stretches from Heihe, a border city in Northeast China's Heilongjiang province, to the Russian city of Blagoveshchensk. It is a key part of a 19.9 km-long highway project that links Jilin-Heilongjiang expressway in China and a highway in Blagoveshchensk.
