00:00On Friday, the New Taipei government gave members of the public a chance to cross the soon-to-open Danjiang
00:06Bridge on foot.
00:07I was about 10 years old. I said I was building 40 years ago. It's very good. This橋 is very
00:14beautiful.
00:15The bridge connects New Taipei's Bali and Danshui districts, saving up to 25 minutes of travel time and relieving traffic
00:22from other bridges further upriver.
00:24The bridge is still closed to vehicle traffic until it opens on May 12th.
00:29Once completed, it will be the longest single-tower cable bridge in the world at 920 meters with a 450
00:37-meter main span.
