List of longest suspension Bridge spans - wikipedia List of longest suspension Bridge spans The Akashi Kaikyō Bridge has the longest central span of any suspension bridge. Map all coordinates using OSM Map all coordinates using Google Export all coordinates as KML Export all coordinates as GPX Map all microformatted coordinates Place data as RDF 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. If one bridge has a longer span than another it does not necessarily mean that the bridge is longer from shore to shore ( or from abutment to abutment ). Suspension bridges have the longest spans of any type of bridge. Cable - stayed bridges, the next longest design, are practical for spans up to just over 1 kilometre. Therefore, the 17 longest bridges on this list are all currently the 17 longest spans of all types of vehicular bridges ( other than floating pontoon bridges ). As of March 2017, Akashi Kaikyō Bridge in Japan holds the record with its span of 1,991 metres ( 6,532 ft ). The Çanakkale 1915 Bridge, currently under construction in Turkey, is expected to surpass it with a span of 2,023 metres ( 6,637 ft ).

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. If completed this bridge will assume six of the top seven longest spans. Chacao Channel bridge Chiloé to mainland Chile 1,100 m ( 3,600 ft ) Preliminary work This unusual design had two main spans of 1,055 m and 1,100 m without an anchorage between them.

The construction methods pioneered in building it would make possible several much larger projects to follow. Benjamin Franklin Bridge Pennsylvania - New Jersey, US 533 m ( 1,749 ft ) 1926 It was the longest suspension span but not the longest span of all bridges. Ambassador Bridge US 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.
