Bridges in the United Kingdom is a link page for significant road bridges or footbridges in the ... longest single-span bridge in the UK, ... Under construction in 2015:
This is a list of the world's longest bridges that are more than 3 kilometers (1.9 mi) in length sorted by their full length above land and water. The main span is the longest span without any ground support.
The least expensive bridge for its size ever constructed; the highest railway viaduct in the United Kingdom; the third highest viaduct in the world. Closed 1967 Crumlin Viaduct (Northern Ireland)
Construction of the UK’s longest railway bridge has been completed on the outskirts of north-west London. HS2 engineers installed the final deck segment of the 2.1-mile Colne Valley Viaduct on ...
The Colne Valley Viaduct is a bridge, under construction as of 2024, which will carry the High Speed 2 railway over the Colne Valley Regional Park and the Grand Union Canal, in Hillingdon, west London. When completed, its length of 3.4 kilometres (2.1 mi) and a weight of 116,000 tonnes will make it the largest railway bridge in the UK. It is ...
The world's longest suspension bridges are listed according to the length of their main span (i.e., the length of suspended roadway between the bridge's towers). 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.

This list of tallest bridges includes bridges with a structural height of at least 200 metres (660 ft). The structural height of a bridge is the maximum vertical distance from the uppermost part of a bridge, such as the top of a bridge tower, to the lowermost exposed part of the bridge, where its piers, towers, or mast pylons emerge from the surface of the ground or water.
This list of the longest arch bridge spans ranks the world's arch bridges by the length of their main span.The length of the main span is the most common way to rank bridges as it usually correlates with the engineering complexity involved in designing and constructing the bridge. [1]
