The image captures a pivotal moment as deck units of the bridge are being meticulously installed by a specially designed launch gantry known as JLP01_60010_03. The sheer magnitude of this engineering feat is evident in the photograph, with workers dwarfed by the massive machinery and towering structure. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and determination to overcome challenges posed by such ambitious projects.
