Amazing!!! China Builds Highway In The Middle Of A River Valley by CuteMaryJ: 4:20pm On Aug 23, 2015 |
A stunning new route opened in Hubei province, central China, on August 9. Incredible images of the new road shows that drivers are literally travelling over water as the 6.8-mile motorway is built in the middle of a river valley. The spectacular road connects Xingshan County in Hubei to G42, a high-speed route that connects Shanghai in eastern China to Chengdu in south west China, reported People's Daily Online. The 6.8 mile road is built on top of a bridge that follows the curve of the river valley. It will cut down travel time from Xingshan to G42 to just 20 minutes. The journey originally took close to an hour along a steep and convoluted road. Drivers along the route are treated to breathtaking views of the valley as well as the river and nearby villages. The new route has already been dubbed the 'over-water highway'. Is The World's Most Scenic Highway? 1 Like

tdayof: Ode, are you trying to imply I don't know what I am talking about? The bridge is over the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, so yes, it is over the atlantic ocean. |

kayo80: For sake of clarity for all readers, Third Mainland Bridge crosses over the Lagos Lagoon and is not in any way close to the Atlantic Ocean. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_Mainland_Bridge |

Isn't third mainland bridge in the middle of an ocean? The only difference is that this one is breadthtaking. |
