I didn’t know about this bridge when I took a ferry from HK to Macau. When I thought I was in the middle of the ocean far away from land I saw the bridge in the distance stretching on seemingly forever and I was blown away by the scale.
Actually the key value of this bridge is facilitating freight transactions, it does really reduce the transportation cost between Hong Kong's international port and the west coast of the Pearl River Delta, instead for of convinience of individual travel. In fact, it would be more convinient to take a ferry between two sides for individuals.@@RSCB
B1M is one of the most professional and dignified channels here on UA-cam although they do have the unfair advantage that their voice-over is done by the most British man ever that always add an extra layer of class and sophistication to any piece of media.
It took only 8 years to build this bridge? It's that fast even with a few years of delay. The same bridge will take at least 20-30 years to build if it is done in America or Europe.
Uh, what? I don't know about Europe but the US took 35 years to build the Interstate Highway System which is over 70,000 km of roadways connecting every single state in multiple continuous paths spanning coast to coast, border to border. If it was necessary to build a 55 km bridge in the US, it wouldn't take 20-30 years. It would probably take about the same amount of time as this one. But it would already be built by now. As the new kid on the block, China just likes to show off with hyper-focused spectacle projects that allow it to flex its new economic muscles. Is it cool? Fuck yeah. Is it something only China could pull off? Not at all. It's just something only China would bother doing in the first place.
8 years is so quick for a project that massive! It took 8 years to add addition lanes to a select part of the New Jersey Turnpike. They built a world record bridge in that amount of time! Damn.
yes! but Fast and Furious production probably want to have a talk with bridge authorities for filming, because the Fast and Furious 6 Airstrip wasn't enough.
What’s also just as astonishing if not more than the engineering achievements is that they actually thought this needed to be done and they could get it done and went ahead. That’s bold. Respect.
Reminds me of an old comic book story where Superman built a transatlantic bridge linking New York and London. He included rest stops, hotels, and gas stations periodically on the bridge itself. The idea fascinated me even though it seemed far-fetched to me even as a kid. So I'm very surprised to see something similar having been built in real life.
Jesus is gonna build bridges over the whole ocean as he raises Jehovah's witnesses to perfection during his soon to start 1k year Peaceful rule as King
Bridge over troubled waters? But what a feat! It's beautiful, and the idea of driving across, and partly under, the ocean is utterly amazing! Thanks for another great video!
I will be in Hong Kong in January and will have this crossing to Macau as a matter of priority .Cant wait to cross it and experience this marvel of modern engineering
Make sure you look into the requrements to have access to the bridge. Most people in the CCP's version of China can't meet requirements so I don't know how it will work for a Foreigner.

It is an white elephant project. The project budget cost was HK$6.8 billion but the final cost was HK$120 billion (1665%). The design minimum traffic rate to initiate the project was 9,200 number/day. The actual was four thousand something. It did not reach half of the minimum design rate. The income could not even balance the operating cost.
The comment is an obviously complimentary one, I don't believe I have to sya that, but what I find insane is the fact that they build a bridge crossing such a large distance.
@Fook Oh Wong pretty laughable, I would suggest looking up patent US3849821A. Like most things from China its not original work and made cheaply(laziness). These technologies being used are old and this bridge isn't the first of its kind. Sure its long, but like most engineering features: it isn't about how great it looks, but how practical and easily maintainable it is in today's society. My guess, all that fake concrete will erode 2X as fast. We will see in time. In the meantime, be aware of emotionally(music in the video) strewn propaganda.
Last summer I went to Macau from Hong Kong international and it was beautiful too bad it didn't open until a couple months after I was already back in the states. I'm sure next time I go to Macau I'll try to see if I can take the bridge there.
Look at canada takes us 5 years to approve something then another 10-15 to start any project.. usa is still amazing at what they build not sure what you on about brother
Spectacular structure in record breaking times. Lived in Czechia (EU) for a few years ... resurfacing a ~200km highway has been in the works since 2012!!!
The construction of the bridge is indeed impressive. Right now the usage of it is highly restricted. Basically the average citizen will travel on buses. And no, there's no railway support.
At 4:44, notice the brown "streaks" in the water. These are almost certainly artificial sand banks, there to stop large ships from running straight into the pylons. The Öresund bridge mentioned has similar banks (as do doubtless many others.)
Definitely UA-cam... there's no fake drama and manufactured conflict that seems to exist in modern mainstream documentaries... because Producers tell them that's how you entice and keep viewers. UA-cam channels like The B1M, on the other hand, stick to facts, figures & interesting subjects, presented in a no-nonsense, clear & concise style. Bravo The B1M.
I really love your video. And people here tends to put down bias and appreciate each counties’ achievements, which is a very valuable thing nowadays :D
There's a story behind the scene that foreigners may not know about, the idea of building the bridge was initially proposed by the Hong Kong governor who was about to build up an economic circle among Hong Kong, Macao and Zhuhai, where the bridge had NO entrance and exit to Shenzhen even though the 3 cities are geographically pretty near from Shenzhen, just so it could make Hong Kong relatively easy to compete with Shenzhen. Still, Beijing approved, invested and finally finished building it as per Hong Kong's request, but it did not go as well as expected, Shenzhen's development seems just unstoppable and thanks to the continuous riots that took place in Hong Kong last year, I am sure the CCP has got so disappointed and would probably fully support Shenzhen in ways in the next coming 10 years...the beneficiary of Hong Kong's riots is Shenzhen, and the young people of Hong Kong have dug their own grave by their own hands without even knowing, they may not even realize they have ruined the brighter future of Hong Kong by themselves. LOL
Those rioters are now reaping what they sowed unwittingly on behalf of the geopolitical manipulators from across the Pacific Ocean. Some of them are now jobless in the UK, and may become rioters, or parents of rioters, in London in the future.
Wow, 8 years to build this 55 km bridge across the ocean, in Sydney it took 8 years and more to finish a 2 km light rail in the CBD of Sydney, well-done china,
I love your videos and this is an incredible project. I personally think it would be cool if you mentioned who the major construction and engineering companies are. For example, Dragages is a French company and Arup is British. It's interesting to see who wins these contracts and who is capable of designing/building the insanely complex projects.
The irony is that the roads that are in trouble are all in Hong Kong. Hong Kong contracted the road section to Western companies because it did not have the capacity to build it.Of course, this video is not spoken
@CS Wong They have POLITICAL WILL - which is why they are coming out on top! The Westerners would cry waste of money if their government did something on this scale!
I wish that someone would make a similar video about the bridge inaugurated couple of years back across Brahmaputra river in NE India. It is over 9 km long across a very erratic and turbulent river.
While this is the longest "crossing" in the world, it's not the longest bridge. This "crossing" is made up of 2 bridges and a tunnel. While the 2 bridges of the Hong Kong-Macau Crossing are long, they aren't the longest bridges. The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway in the U.S. is 24 miles (39 km) and the Hangzhou Bay Bridge in China is 22 miles (36 km). They are the longest bridges in the world over water, and technically are the longest "crossings" over water, since the Hong Kong bridge goes underwater. Still, this is a very impressive project.
I didn’t know about this bridge when I took a ferry from HK to Macau. When I thought I was in the middle of the ocean far away from land I saw the bridge in the distance stretching on seemingly forever and I was blown away by the scale.

Now it is getting serious
Not to mention how other countries wouldn't be even able to afford it since labor costs are very inexpensive when compared to "developed" countries.
Fortunately, I passed this bridge when I went to Hong Kong from Zhuhai. I want to describe it as an epic.

What’s also just as astonishing if not more than the engineering achievements is that they actually thought this needed to be done and they could get it done and went ahead. That’s bold. Respect.
exactly. Imagine this bridge just being an idea. The boldness it takes to turn that idea and really see it to the finish line is insane
Reminds me of an old comic book story where Superman built a transatlantic bridge linking New York and London. He included rest stops, hotels, and gas stations periodically on the bridge itself. The idea fascinated me even though it seemed far-fetched to me even as a kid. So I'm very surprised to see something similar having been built in real life.
