Construction on the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, a 55-kilometer-long bridge-island-tunnel complex situated in the Lingdingyang waters of the Pearl River Estuary in southern China, began on December 15, 2009.
And now, the bridge, which was described by The Guardian as one of the "seven wonders in the modern world," is set to open for vehicles Wednesday.
Lauded as the world's longest sea-based project, the complex also includes a 6.7km undersea tunnel, which connects to the bridge via two artificial islands.
