Macao's new $1.2 billion bridge opens, linking southern Macao to the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge.

The Macao Bridge, Macao's fourth cross-sea bridge, opened on National Day, connecting the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge to southern Macao. Spanning 3.08 kilometers with a 2.86-kilometer sea section, it offers a direct route to Taipa and Cotai, designed to handle 40,000 vehicles daily, or 25% of traffic between the Macao Peninsula and Taipa. The bridge, built from March 2020 to March 12, includes windshields for safety in extreme weather and is built to last 100 years.
