Baishaxi Bridge is one of several high beam spans along the Jianli Expressway in Eastern Guizhou Province. The 507 meter long crossing has a main span configuration of 81+150+81 meters with approach spans of 30 meters supported on piers as tall as 106 meters.
Just to the north is the dual concrete Jianli arches over the Qingshui River with a main span of 248 meters. The reservoir beneath both bridges was formed by the Sanbanxi Hyroelectric power station across the Qingshui River with a full water level of 475 meters.
Other high beam bridges along the Jianli Expressway include the Nanzhaixi and Nanmengxi Bridges.
