Longest laterally-unsupported span in the world?
editThe article currently claims that the bridge has "the longest laterally-unsupported span in the world". I cannot find any sources for this, however I cannot confirm that this is untrue. If anyone can find a reliable source for this bit of information, feel free to readd it. Arsenikk (talk) 21:31, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
