Mackinac Bridge, World’s Largest Suspension Bridge
It’s the postcard that says this is the longest suspension bridge. Time has overtaken the claim, however. Now, the Mackinac Bridge Authority says: “The Mackinac Bridge is currently the fifth longest suspension bridge in the world. In 1998, the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge in Japan became the longest with a total suspension of 12,826 feet. The Mackinac Bridge is the longest suspension bridge in the western hemisphere.” Anyway, length is measured by the main span. Unused card. Grade: 1
