Highways Department (HyD) of Hong Kong SAR is turning their idea for a world class bridge across Rambler Channel at the entrance to Kwai Chung Container Port into reality. Due to the spectacular location, HyD selected the concept for the bridge through an international design Competition. The competition took place in the first half of 2000 and the winning concept was a cable-stayed structure with freestanding towers located between twin box girder decks. The 1018m main span is in steel,
while the four back spans each side are in concrete. The two towers stand on shore, providing unobstructed access to the busy container port with a minimum navigation headroom of 73.5m.
