Chinese firms to build largest cross-sea cable-stayed bridge in Latin America
A joint venture of China Railway 20th Bureau Group Co and China Communications Construction Co signed a contract to build a cross-sea cable-stayed bridge in Salvador with the Brazilian state of Bahia on Thursday, meaning the construction of the largest such bridge in Latin America will kick off.
Located in Salvador, the capital of Bahia state in Brazil, the Salvador Bridge is designed to be 46.8 kilometers long.
One of the highlights of the bridge will be the 12.4-kilometer cross-sea section, with the main tower topping up at 205 meters and a maximum span of 450 meters.
The depth of water in the area reaches 60 meters.
