China has unveiled the world’s longest sea bridge, which stretches a massive
26.4 miles! The road bridge, which took four years and cost a cool £5.5billion
to build, will be open for use in the New Year and is almost three miles longer
than the previous record-holder, the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in Louisiana.
With an overall length of 42.58km, the route between Qingdao and Huangdao will
be shortened by 30km, cutting the travel time by about 20 minutes.
However, the colossal construction is set to hold the record as the longest sea
bridge only for a few years – and it will be bettered by another Chinese bridge
in the next decade.
