Ting Kau Bridge

Ting Kau Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge in Tsuen Wan District that crosses the Rambler Channel between Ting Kau and Tsing Yi Island. Three single-column towers support the structure, with the tallest pylon rising to 201 meters and the total length extending just under 1,200 meters.

The bridge was built over 38 months and opened in May 1998. Its launch coincided with the opening of Hong Kong International Airport and the Tai Lam Tunnel.

The structure represents a major engineering achievement in Hong Kong's transportation network, featuring an innovative design that differs from traditional A-frame or H-frame cable-stayed bridges.

The bridge carries six lanes of traffic and connects the Northwest New Territories with Hong Kong International Airport. The speed limit stands at 80 kilometers per hour (50 miles per hour), which travelers should consider when planning their route.

The three pylons stand at different heights and create an unusual silhouette against the sky. Engineers designed the structure to withstand wind speeds of up to 95 meters per second (213 miles per hour).
