The inauguration ceremony for the bridge was held on August 17, 2004.
The bridge spans the Indus River and carries the KKH, next to a bridge built between 1966 and 1978.[1] The bridge was given its Chinese name in 2004 to honour the Chinese and Pakistani workers killed in the construction of the Karakoram Highway.[2][3]
