The spaces under several bridges of Wuhan, Hubei province, have been transformed from dirty and messy areas into brand-new venues for culture, entertainment, and sports to improve the urban environment and enrich people's lives, local authorities said.
The city has 878 urban bridges and tunnels, with grand bridges spanning the Yangtze River and its branches, and connecting the districts of Hanyang, Hankou, and Wuchang. As heavy traffic flowed across the bridges, the spaces underneath had long been neglected, earning them the nickname "gray corners".
