World’s tallest bridge standing at 625m: Huajiang Grand Canyon opens in China; cuts travel time from 2 hours to 2 minutes
China has officially opened the Huajiang Grand Canyon Bridge, now the world's highest at 625 metres, dramatically reducing travel time in Guizhou Province. This 2890-metre marvel, also the largest-span steel truss girder suspension bridge in mountainous terrain, significantly enhances regional connectivity and economic growth. It surpasses the Beipanjiang Bridge, further cementing China's infrastructure prowess, though France's Millau Viaduct remains structurally taller.
