Although not the longest bridge in the world, the bridge spanning the greatest width of open ocean is the 36-km (22.4-mile) long Hangzhou Bay Bridge linking the cities of Cixi and Zhapu in the Zhejiang province of China. Construction on the £860 million (then $1.4 billion) bridge began in June 2003 and it is expected to be open to road traffic in 2008.
