Nice. How many bridges are they planning to built total? I watched a tv show last time which said that Shanghai will built a total of 20 underwater tunnels by 2020 connecting to Pudong which will make Shanghai the only place in the world to have so many tunnels for one river.

Huangpu River crossings in SH
Quote:
Bridges: Currently 3 large bridges downtown, from N to S: Yangpu, Nanpu, Lupu. South of the city 2 major bridges: Xupu and Fengpu (Fangpu not so impressive.) Road tunnels: North of the City the outer Ring Road Tunnel. Downtown, N to S: Dalian Road Tunnel, Yanan Road Tunnel, Fuxing Road Tunnel and the Dapu Road Tunnel (the oldest). Subway Tunnels: Metro Line No. 2 Misc.: Bund Sightseeing Tunnel. Under Construction: Bridges: Crossing Huangpu River - none. More outside Shanghai, especially the Donghai Daqiao. Road Tunnels: Northern and southern River crossings for the Central Ring Road. Subway Tunnels: Northern and southern river crossing for the Subway Line No. 4. The southern tunnel collapsed in 2003, delaying the opening of the Subway Line No.4 for more than 1 year. River crossing for the Subway Line No. 8 south of downtown. Planned: At least one more road tunnel north of downtown. The traffic concept for the 2010 EXPO is not fixed yet, more river crossings south of downtown are to be expected. |
