The Governor Nobre de Carvalho Bridge, also known as the Macau–Taipa Bridge, is a dual-lane two-way bridge connecting Macau Peninsula near Casino Lisboa and the island of Taipa at the northern slope of Taipa Pequena (Small Taipa Hill) crossing the former Baía da Praia Grande.
The middle of the bridge is raised over a distance of 1213 m to allow vessels to pass through a 73 m wide passage.
The highest point of the bridge is 35 meters (115 ft) above sea level.
Due to the construction around Casino Lisboa, the bridge was temporarily closed in 2005.
