World's Longest Cross-sea Bridge Opens in East China


The Beijing to Shanghai bullet train and now the world's longest cross-sea bridge has opened in Qingdao, East China's Shandong Province. The bridge spans eight lines of traffic and is over 41km long. Other vital statistics, the bridge will shorten travel time between the urban district of the city and its Huangdao district from more than 40 to 20 minutes. The report in the China Daily says Qingdao residents are pretty chuffed not only because their city holds the record for the longest bridge but because it??s going to ease commuting issues. Apparently this project was 21 years in the making, 17 of those years it took to plan (particularly due to high salt content and the icy winter seas) and then it took 4 years to actually build.
