中朝新鸭绿江大桥正式开通 闲置12年后举行开通仪式
辽宁丹东讯——据新华社报道，10月15日上午，中朝新鸭绿江大桥正式开通，开通仪式当天举行，新华社记者在现场发回仪式照片。据央视新闻报道，此前一天，经中朝双方商定，大桥定于10月15日正式开通，双方共同举行开通仪式。据CNN报道，仪式上装饰有两国国旗的货车驶过大桥。
新鸭绿江大桥为斜拉桥，连接中国辽宁省丹东市与朝鲜平安北道新义州市，全长约3公里，主跨636米，双向四车道。据韩联社旗下媒体报道，大桥2010年底至2011年间开工，中方一侧2014年完工，造价约22亿元人民币；此后因朝方一侧引桥道路与海关、出入境设施长期未完工，大桥闲置约12年。据路透社此前报道，韩国卫星影像分析显示，朝方海关与出入境设施主体工程今年9月初接近完工。
新华社在开通报道中表示，大桥是两国互联互通重要设施，开通后将进一步促进两国经贸交流和人员往来。据相关报道数据，2025年中国对朝鲜出口约23亿美元，同比增长25%；丹东与新义州之间的口岸长期承担两国贸易的主要份额，此前主要依靠1943年通车的中朝友谊桥通行。

New Yalu River Bridge Between China and North Korea Officially Opens After 12-Year Wait
DANDONG, Liaoning — Xinhua reported that the New Yalu River Bridge between China and North Korea officially opened on the morning of October 15, with a joint opening ceremony held the same day and Xinhua photographers filing pictures from the scene. CCTV News had reported a day earlier that the two sides had agreed on the October 15 opening and a joint ceremony. CNN reported that trucks decorated with the two countries' flags crossed the bridge during the ceremony.
The cable-stayed bridge links Dandong in China's Liaoning Province with Sinuiju in North Korea's North Pyongan Province. It is about 3 kilometres long, with a 636-metre main span and four lanes in both directions. Construction began around late 2010 to 2011, and the Chinese side was completed in 2014 at a reported cost of about 2.2 billion yuan. The opening was then delayed for about 12 years because connecting roads and customs and border facilities on the North Korean side remained unfinished. Reuters earlier reported satellite analysis showing the main structures of the North Korean customs facilities nearing completion in early September this year.
Xinhua described the bridge as an important interconnection facility that will further promote trade and people-to-people exchanges between the two countries. Reported figures put China's exports to North Korea at about US$2.3 billion in 2025, up 25 percent year on year. Crossings between Dandong and Sinuiju have long carried the bulk of bilateral trade, previously relying mainly on the Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge, opened in 1943.
