34miles, £12billion, China Set To Open World's Longest Sea Bridge(Photos) by Explorers(m): 1:16pm On Jul 08, 2017 |
Construction on the world's longest sea bridge connecting Hong Kong, Zhuhai and Macao is almost complete. After seven years of construction, the 34-mile-long bridge is set to open at the end of the year. It will cut travel time from Hong Kong to Zhuhai down to 30 minutes from 3 hours. Zhu Yongling, director of the management bureau of the bridge has confirmed that the bridge will open at the end of the year. The bridge used 420,000 tonnes of steel which is enough to build 60 Eiffel Towers. It bridge's total length is 55 kilometres (34 miles) making it 14 miles longer than the distance from Dover to Calais. The bridge has cost some HK$ 112 billion (£12 billion). Video footage shows the sheer size of the completed main structure. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4675520/World-s-longest-sea-bridge-finished-China.html Lalasticlala, mynd44 19 Likes 7 Shares

The bridge (pictured in 2015) as workers construct in the Pearl River Delta. Yin Haiqing, a leading engineer on the project told Xinhua: 'Due to lack ofexperience, it took us 96 hours to lay the first tube in the ocean and many engineers and workers hardly slept for four consecutive days.' The bridge will cut travel time between Hong Kong and Zhuhai from 3 hours to just 30 minutes. 15 Likes 3 Shares

When u have good leaders in a place,even an ant will soar like a giant. A leader is as good as a follower. A bad follower can never be a good leader. Every leader was once a follower.We need good followers in the country if we really desire greater heights like China. 37 Likes 2 Shares |

Imagine the invaluable amount of skills and knowledge that must have been transferred during this project. Imagine if this was replicated in my country How can we replicate this when all we discuss in our national budget are salaries of civil servants 34 Likes 1 Share |

Good. When you have an active/proactive president success/development is a guarantee. But when you have a promise and fail president/immigrant/junketeer as a President... (Do the calculations! It's not difficult) 5 Likes |
