The Jintang Bridge ( Chinese  金塘 大桥 , Pinyin Jīntáng dàqiáo ) is a 21,029 meter long highway bridge in China , which connects the island of Jintang with the mainland and is used by the Ningbo – Zhoushan (G92 11 ) highway . The Jintang Bridge is one of the longest road bridges in the world.

The building is a pre-stressed concrete - girder bridge , only the main opening in the center is formed by a cable-stayed bridge formed with a steel beam support. It has a span of 620 meters and can be passed under by two bulk carriers with 50,000 GRT at the same time . On the east side there is another opening for shipping with a span of 216 meters and on the west side one with 156 meters. The rest of the bridge is divided into different sections with continuous girders, which in total consist of 344 mostly 60 meter long fields.

The construction cost of the bridge amounted to 7.7 billion RMB , converted 1.5 billion US dollars . The opening was originally planned for November 2009, but was delayed by a month after a cargo ship collided with the bridge in March 2008 and one of the 3000 tonne fields fell into the sea.
