Cable-stayed bridges are good for up to about 1 km of span. The current longest cable-stayed bridge is the Russky Bridge over the Eastern Bosphorus Strait linking Vladivostok to Russky Island in Russia. Longest span 1104m/3622ft. or about 1.1 km. Opened in 2012. The Russky Bridge (photos) was criticised as a 'bridge to nowhere', costing about US$1 billion and serving an island where only 5,000 people live, althogh the design capacity is 50,000 cars a day. The paved road ends shortly after the bridge.
