Hangzhou Bay Bridge – More Photos

After the meeting, we get back from Cixi to Shanghai via the Hangzhou Bay Bridge again. This time, I took the front seat and was able to take more photos of the bridge. I know many of my readers will enjoy the latest update of the bridge.

The weather of today is not very good, and as normal, there is no blue sky, and the visibility today is pretty low. Sorry for the low quality of the photos.

Below: Big bill boards are ready along the road on the South Side of the bridge. I believe the next time I am there, they are all covered by ads – but don’t you think there are too many bill boards there?

The first big intersection after getting tot he north side of the bridge is the Hangpu Highway, the second highway connecting Hangzhou and Pudong, other than the A8 Huhang Expressway. As you can see from the sign, turning the Hangpu Expressway exit, you can get to Yangshan Port, and Pudong Airport, and also A5, A6, A30.

Keep going and you can get to the intersection with the A8 (to be more exact, the highway of the Hangzhou Bridge has been officially named G15).
