  • The Strait of Messina Bridge, once complete, will become the longest single-span suspension bridge. This ambitious project will take 6 years to complete and aims to connect Sicily to mainland Italy and Europe. However, this project has its own unique challenges; the bridge will be subject to high winds and earthquakes that have never been witnessed at a bridge site before. From the design to the construction process, we will uncover the fascinating details behind this ambitious project. Whether you're a bridge enthusiast, an engineering student, or simply curious about large-scale infrastructure, this video will provide you with a captivating insight into the world of civil engineering. Don't miss out on this in-depth look at the Strait of Messina Bridge and the marvels of modern engineering!

    I like your animations but your audio volume is far too low. I had to raise my tablets' volume to almost maximum in order to hear you. PLEASE Raise your microphones recording levels. Your background music was almost louder than you, and it was not playing at a high volume.

    It is always something. Trying to build a much needed bridge to withstand regular earthquake threat. Is indeed a geographical problem to solve. As in North America to build an international bridge when private owner of another bridge did not wish it to become reality.

    Hard to believe this distance could be covered in one span! Seems like the sort of thing a Chinese company would do.
    And I don't know much about the area, but it could help the economy of Sicily a lot! It is well know that Italy has large economic differences between the wealthy North and the poorer South.
    Oh, I made my comment before I got to the bit when you talked about helping the economy of the South!

      Yes - but it looks like the sort of thing a Chinese company would do. That's why I was surprised! ;-)
      We don't do big projects much in Europe any more. Here in the UK, if we try, we fail, or we give up half way. That's why it looks like a Chinese thing, but in fact it is an Italian thing. Hope they do it - good for the Italians!

      The mafia meddled with the construction of the MOSE dam that protects Venice, and it had several cost and time overruns, investigations and also arrests of people involved with the project. And we all know how it turned out. This bridge is needed (along with HS railway to Sicily and decent motorways and railways not only in Sicily but in Sardinia and Calabria as well), but the quality of Italian politics is worrisome. I think it's the less ethical leading class we've ever had since the end of the economic boom.

    At 0:18 you say this will be "the world's longest bridge". That's ridiculous. I used to live in a town that had not one, but _two_ bridges longer than this. I'm not trying to take away from the impressiveness of this bridge, but you need to check your text more carefully next time.

    Why not just add pillars under bridge, then slope at the curve and use land as road(it create slowdown at bridge to be slower). Looks bridge can swing. This was spoken before in the past I wonder why it is being created like this. Is it about success of a plot? To create writing like this to exist?
