What does this number measure?
The operator HSBE gives a total length of 3 911 m, distinct from the central span of 1 991 m. All three spans are represented in the horizontal comparison.
Compare the stated dimensions
The comparison uses the number in each fact sheet: altitude, height, diameter, length or distance, depending on the reference. Two values in metres do not necessarily describe the same property.
Source and limitations
Representative or rounded dimensions according to the source; these are not a confidence interval.
Interpreted general profile of the Akashi Bridge: three spans of 960 m, 1 991 m and 960 m, totalling 3 911 m. Towers placed according to these spans, with vertical proportions close to 300 m. Cables, deck and foundations are interpreted; this is not an exact architectural survey.
Documented construction or demonstration: 1998.
