The Akashi-Kaikyō Bridge has the longest span of any bridge

The world's longest suspension bridges are listed according to the length of their main span (i.e., the length of suspended roadway between the bridge's towers). The length of main span is the most common method of comparing the sizes of suspension bridges, often correlating with the height of the towers and the engineering complexity involved in designing and constructing the bridge.

Suspension bridges have the longest spans of any type of bridge. Cable-stayed bridges, the next longest design, are practical for spans up to around 1 km. Thus, the 17 longest bridges on this list are all currently the 15 longest spans of all types of vehicular bridges.

Completed suspension bridges

This list includes only completed suspension bridges that carry automobiles or trains. It does not include cable-stayed bridges, footbridges or pipeline bridges.

Status Notes
Sunda Strait Bridge Java to Sumatra, Indonesia about 3,000 m (9,800 ft) Preliminary work This project has been approved by the Indonesian government. If completed, it will not only be the world's longest suspension bridge (26 km), but will also have a main span of about 3,000 m (9,800 ft)—roughly fifty percent longer than the current record.[118]
Unnamed Qiongzhou Strait, China about 3,000 m (9,800 ft) Preliminary work A suspension bridge is being considered to cross the 22.5 km wide Qiongzhou Strait.[119] One design consists of four bridges strung together with four main spans of 2,000 m, two main-spans of 1,800 m, five anchorages and 10 towers.[120] If completed this bridge will assume six of the top seven longest spans.
Unnamed Aizhai Gorge in Hunan province, China 1,176 m (3,858 ft) Planned [121]
İzmit Bay Bridge Marmara Sea, Turkey 1,688 m (5,538 ft) Planned Bidding is expected to start in June 2009.[122] The original design called for a long span, but recent images depict several shorter spans.[123]
Chacao Channel bridge Chiloé to mainland Chile 1,100 m (3,600 ft) On hold This unusual design has two main spans of 1,055 m and 1,100 m without an anchorage between them. Construction was supposed to begin in 2007 and completed in 2012, but because of cost overruns, the project is now on hold.
Strait of Messina Bridge Sicily to mainland Italy 3,300 m (10,800 ft) Planned The project was canceled on 11 October 2006 by the Romano Prodi-led government amid controversy concerning the bridge's cost and feared Mafia influence.[124] The new government from 2008 led by Silvio Berlusconi wants to pick up the project again. Preliminary works will begin in December 2009. The main construction is expected to begin in the 2010s.
Gibraltar Bridge Spain to Morocco ? Proposed Some designs have suspension spans of several miles. The suspension cables of a very long bridge might be suspended from the ends of cable-stayed struts extending diagonally from huge pylons. However, as of 2008, the feasibility of a tunnel is being considered instead.
Hålogaland Bridge Narvik, Norway 1,345 m (4,413 ft) Plans under consideration The bridge will reduce the distance between Narvik and Bjerkvik by 17 km. The government of Norway has declared that it wants to build it, with construction to start possibly in 2011, and an opening date in 2015.[125] See no:Hålogalandsbrua.
Taizhou Bridge Taizhou, Jiangsu, China 1,080 m (3,540 ft) under construction

Chakzam Bridge Tibet 137 m (449 ft) 1430 Chain simple suspension footbridge south of Lhasa, built by Thangtong Gyalpo. Reported still in use by British spies in 1878. Later (before 1904) fell into disuse after river course changed, swamping the northern end. [126]. Dynamited by Red Chinese soldiers after the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1950. [127]

Wheeling Suspension Bridge USA 308 m (1,010 ft) 1849 The longest deck span from 1849 until 1866, and the oldest vehicular suspension bridge in use in the United States.
Lewiston-Queenston Bridge USA and Canada 317 m (1,040 ft) 1851 The longest cable span from 1851 until it was destroyed by wind in 1864. However, the road deck span was only 258 m.

Bear Mountain Bridge USA 497 m (1,631 ft) 1924 It was the longest suspension span but not the longest span of all bridges. The Quebec Bridge with a span of 549 m was longer. The first suspension bridge to have a concrete deck. The construction methods pioneered in building it would make possible several much larger projects to follow.
Benjamin Franklin Bridge USA 533 m (1,749 ft) 1926 It was the longest suspension span but not the longest span of all bridges.
Ambassador Bridge USA and Canada 564 m (1,850 ft) 1929 Since this bridge was built, the record for longest bridge span has only been held by suspension bridges.
