Ting Kau Bridge

The 1,177m long Ting Kau Bridge and the 500m long dual Approach Viaduct form a vital link in Hong Kong's new Route 3, connecting Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the new airport at Chek Lap Kok to the New Territories and the mainland. Two main ramps connect to the Tuen Mun Highway and the Western New Territories.

The outstanding features of this unique cable stayed bridge are the 3 towers with heights of 170m, 194m, and 158m, located on the Ting Kau headland, on a reclaimed island in Rambler Channel and on the north-west Tsing Yi shoreline respectively.

The arrangement of separate decks on both sides of the 3 towers contributes to the slender appearance of the bridge while acting favourably under heavy wind and typhoon loads. Each deck carries 3 traffic lanes and a hard shoulder. Spanning the 900m wide Rambler Channel, the Ting Kau Bridge ranks amongst one of the longest cable stayed bridges in the world.
