Hangzhou Bay Bridge

China’s Hangzhou Bay Trans-oceanic Bridge is one of the masterpieces of
modern architecture. It is the longest sea-crossing bridge in the world - 36
kilometres - and comes with a price tag of 11.8 billion yuan (US$1.70 billion).
Opened in May 2008, some 600 Chinese engineers, draftsmen, architects and
designers spent 9 years on planning, preparation and design of the bridge. It is an
S-shaped stayed-cable bridge linking Ningbo's Cixi county in the south to Jiaxing
in the north. The Bridge has a 6-lane motorway which shaves 120 kms off the
driving journey between Shanghai and Ningbo. There are also 2 extra lanes
15
reserved for backup and emergency use.

Hotel & Observatory tower in middle of
Hangzhou Bay Bridge
What is so unique about the Hangzhou Bay Bridge is that it has a 10,000
sq. metre service centre right in its middle. The centre has a restaurant,
petrol kiosk, hotel, conference rooms, and a lookout tower from where
visitors can observe the extraordinary tide and waves of Hangzhou Bay.
The service centre is like an artificial island which rests on piers to avoid
obstructing the sea current in the Bay. Two public parks are also being
planned on either side of the bridge.
Hangzhou Bay is known for it’s tides and waves - a natural wonder and a
major tourist attraction. The waves move at speeds reaching 30 kph and at
times, sound like the roar of thunder.
The S-shaped bridge was specially designed and built to withstand
typhoon and hurricane weather.
