Located midway between Wanxian and Liangping, the Ganningshuiku Bridge is the westernmost high bridge on the G42 expressway. Like the similar Guanjiagou just a few meters further to the west, Ganningshuiku has spans of 40 meters supported on several tall piers that rise 100 meters from the canyon floor. The total length of the bridge is 585 meters. The bridge is located at kilometer 1504.

The Guanjiagou, Ganningshuiku and Zhangjiaba Bridges both cross the upper end of a reservoir.
