World's longest sea-crossing bridge was officially opened

On October 22, 2018, the world's longest sea-crossing bridge was officially opened, connecting Hong Kong, Zhuhai, and Macau. This engineering marvel spans approximately 55 kilometers (34 miles) and is designed to enhance connectivity and economic integration in the Greater Bay Area of China. The bridge consists of a series of bridges and tunnels, allowing for a seamless travel experience across the Pearl River Delta. It significantly reduces travel time between the three cities, making it possible to traverse the distance in about 30 minutes, compared to the previous three hours by ferry or road. The project, which took nearly a decade to complete, is expected to boost trade, tourism, and economic collaboration in the region, fostering closer ties among the cities involved. The bridge also stands as a testament to modern engineering capabilities, showcasing innovative design and construction techniques. As a vital infrastructure project, it is anticipated to play a crucial role in the future development of the Greater Bay Area, which aims to become a leading economic hub in Asia. #mooflife #mof #MomentOfLife #HongKong #Zhuhai #Macau #Sea-crossingBridge #Infrastructure
