惠济桥是近年来郑州地区隋唐大运河通济渠段的考古新发现之一,与惠济桥同时发现的还有其下的一条南北向的古河道。惠济桥与其南北两侧的古河道被认为是隋唐大运河通济渠的故道。根据历史文献、考古发现与实地考察的相互印证,惠济桥及其南北两侧古河道对于我们认识隋唐以来黄、淮、海交界地区的水运分布格局和历史上黄河、淮河、海河水系的关系问题具有重要研究价值。

The Huiji Bridge around Zhengzhou is one of the new archaeological discoveries in the part of the Tongji Trench of the Great Canal in the Sui and Tang Dynasties,and with the former an old north-south river- way the bridge crossed was discovered too. The Huiji Bridge and the old river-way were taken as the old watercourse of the Tongji Trench on the Great Canal in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. According to the mutual confirmation of historical documents,archaeological discoveries and local investigation,the Huiji Bridge and the north-south river-way it crossed are of significant value of research to the distribution pattern of water transportation at the crosses of the Yellow River,the Huai River and the Hai River,and the relations between water systems of these rivers.
