Youfangwan Route S307 is a large 2-lane concrete cantilevered beam completed in 2013 along the edge of the Jinshajiang reservoir that was formed by the giant Xiluodu Dam. With a height of 285.5 meters, Xiluodu is among the 5 tallest concrete dams in the world and is located on the border of Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces 50 kilometers downstream from the Jinshajiang Bridge Kahaluo.

The Youfangwan Route S307 Bridge has a span configuration of 2x30 +80+140+80 +2x30 meters. Just upstream half a kilometer is the 4-lane G4211 Expressway Youfangwan Bridge.

The full height of the Aotiangou Bridge could be seen during the final stages of construction before the Xiluodu Dam lake water flooded the canyon below it.
