The bridge, bearing the intercity railway, swiveled around an angle of 62.32 degrees in 73 minutes above the Tianjin-Baoding Railway, starting at seven seconds after midnight to avoid interference with railway traffic running below, Beijing Daily reported.
This is the first bridge that finished swiveling along the Beijing-Xiongan intercity railway, which is of great significance for the railway's construction, according to Li Zheng, deputy director for construction of the Beijing-Xiongan intercity railway.
