The world's longest bridge is the DanyangâKunshan Grand Bridge in China, part of the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway. The bridge, which opened in June 2011, spans 102.4 miles (165 kilometers). Another part of that train line, the 70.8-mile (114-km) long LangfangâQingxian viaduct, is the second longest bridge in the world. China constructed the DanyangâKunshan Grand Bridge in just 4 years, employing 10,000 workers, at a cost of about $8.5 million.
When opened, the bridge will also gain the esoteric honors of second longest steel-trussed cable-stayed bridge and the 10th tallest bridge tower in the world.
