Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge

The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge (formerly the First Nanjing Yangtze Bridge) is a double-decked road–rail truss bridge spanning the Yangtze River and connecting the Pukou and Gulou districts of Nanjing. The upper deck forms part of China National Highway 104 with a total upper-deck span of 4,588 metres; the lower deck is a double-track railway completing the Beijing–Shanghai railway, with a lower-deck length reported as 6,772 metres. Structural notes in supplied sources also describe a right bridge section consisting of nine piers, a maximum span of 160 m, and a total length of 1,576 m. Operational data in the provided material cite daily traffic on the bridge of roughly 80,000 vehicles and 190 trains, indicating ongoing heavy use. The research notes and supplied source excerpts contain no direct descriptions of paranormal phenomena, suicide reports, named spirits, or local ghost lore tied to the bridge. Archival items in the source list are historical film materials and footage referencing the Yangtze region or showing military vehicles at Nanjing, but their descriptive metadata does not claim hauntings or supernatural events at the bridge. Because the provided sources focus on structural, transport, and historical-archive contexts, the bridge's notability in these notes is infrastructural and historical rather than folkloric.
