Hong Kong: Tsing Ma Bridge

Tsing Ma Bridge, Lantau Link
At 2.2 km the bridge is the world's longest combined road and rail suspension bridge. It is designed to withstand 300 km/h winds and carries 6 lanes of traffic on the upper deck and 2 more lanes below for use in bad weather. The main span is 1,377 meters. The total length of the 160,000 km suspension cable wire is enough to circle the world four times.
