Even bigger bridge!

After the tale of Russia's immense bridge to nowhere in The Economist of 8 September, I thought I had seen extremes of bridge-making. Until the 15 September issue arrived (I'm always two Economists behind the world) and they mentioned something even more massive: the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in Shandong province. I had to google it, thusly:

Longest sea bridge opens in China, The Hindu, 1 July 2011.

And people wonder why I freak out when I don't have my Economist.
