According to Guangdong Transportation Group Co, it will employ a double-deck steel truss suspension design to achieve a single-span crossing the river.

The bridge's main tower is to be a portal tower structure standing 342 meters tall, equivalent to the height of a 110-story building.

Starting from Dagang township in Guangzhou's Nansha district and ending in Humen township of Dongguan, the Shiziyang Link will be approximately 35 kilometers long, including the main bridge across the river and the shore approach sections.

When completed and opened to traffic, the Shiziyang Link will help form a cross-sea and cross-river passage network in the Greater Bay Area, contributing to the establishment of a one-hour transportation circle.
