The 青馬大橋 Tsing Ma Bridge is the worlds seventh longest span suspension bridge with a span of 1377 meters. It has two decks, one with six lanes for cars, the other for the 東涌 Tung Chung line and Airport Express trains, which can operate even during the most severe typhoons. The highway that passes this bridge connects the city with the airport via 大嶼山 Lantau Island. It will be part of the 港珠澳大橋 Hong Kong – Zhuhai – Macau link that is expected to open in 2016. Glowing in the back you see the Hong Kong port.
