The bridge links the cities Heihe in northern China and Russia’s far eastern city of Blagoveshchensk located on the opposite banks of the Amur River. $300-million construction project started in December 2016 and the two parts of the massive cable-braced bridge were joined together at the end of May. The new milestone was reached on Friday, November 29, when local authorities announced the end of the construction works paving the way for the opening, scheduled for April 2020.
