The World’s Largest Bridge Qatar-Bahrain Friendship Causeway
Bridges and monsters go so well together, especially in the movies. After all, watching a finely-made raised road get crushed in the hands (or claws or tentacles, whichever the case may be) of a beastly creature always made for an excellent (and, sometimes, campy) action scene. Expect a new spate of infrastracture-destroying monsters to haul their acts over to the Qatar-Bahrain Friendship Causeway, a planned bridge that's set to be the largest in the world. As the name implies, the new marine causeway will offer a connection between the west coast of Qatar and the east coast of Bahrain. The pathway will be massive, stretching up to 40 km long (featuring a 22 km bridge and 18km of embankments) and measuring 13 meters wide. According to those organizing the project, it will be the same length as 1,215 Blue Whales and 536 Boeing 747's - it's damn huge.
