Video. China and North Korea open New Yalu River Bridge after 12-year delay
- The 3,026-metre, four-lane New Yalu River Bridge links the Chinese border city of Dandong with Sinuiju in North Korea.
- Hundreds of people gathered in Dandong on Thursday to watch as lorries began crossing in both directions, some decorated with Chinese and North Korean flags and flowers.
- Completed in 2014, the bridge had stood unused for 12 years because connecting roads and customs facilities on the North Korean side were not finished.
