List of longest suspension bridge spans

The length of the main span is the most common method of comparing the sizes of suspension bridges, often correlating with the height of the towers and the engineering complexity involved in designing and constructing the bridge.

The 1915 Çanakkale Bridge in Turkey holds the record since opening to traffic in March 2022, with a span of 2,023 metres (6,637 ft).

[1][3] Since 1998, the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Japan previously held the record with a span of 1,991 metres (6,532 ft).

This list includes only completed suspension bridges that carry automobiles or trains that are at least 1,000 m (3,300 ft) long.

The construction methods pioneered in building it would make possible several much larger projects to follow.

The 1915 Çanakkale Bridge in Turkey, opened in 2022, has the longest central span (2,023 m) of any suspension bridge. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]
