You can already imagine the view avilable when driving thru this bridge, i can imagine there will be car accidents involved coz of this view...

Very nice, but isn't the longest span cable-stayed bridge in Greece?

pilotos · May 16th, 2007, 03:35 PM

Hm the suspended deck of this bridge seems to be 1.018 m while the rio antirio has a total suspended deck of 2.252 m, but i think they mean the longest span between the pylons, which in rio is 560 m.

Anyway an excellent bridge and a great presentation by the poster

If you take the longest span as criterion, longest now is Tatara Bridge in Japan with 890 m. Stonecutters will be on top with 1,018 m, but not so long because Sutong Bridge with 1,088 m span is also currently under construction.

The show "Extreme Engineering" on Discovery Channel does have an episode on the Stonecutter Bridge.

This is going to be one very uncomfortable 360 turn.

Everything looks so extreme massive. The bride is going to stand no matter what happens to it.

And this is going to be one very uncomfortable 360 turn.

I like bridges that passes through container ports while providing a nice view of the city's skyline. This is the perfect example of such one
