The Baluarte Bridge held the record for the highest cable-stayed bridge in the world when it was inaugurated in 2012 with a maximum drop from the surface of the deck to the bottom of the Baluarte River of 403 metres (1,322 ft), according to the Guinness World Records,[18][19] however, some diagrams of the bridge show a height of 390 metres (1,280 ft) between the axis of the central span and the river, the bridge having a regular slope of 5%.[20][21][22] Its clearance is largely higher than that of the previous record-holder, France's Millau Viaduct, which has a clearance of 270 metres (890 ft) but it was beaten by the 565 metres (1,854 ft) high Duge Bridge in China, opened in 2016.[23][24]
This table presents a non-exhaustive list of the road and railway bridges with spans greater than 100 metres (328 ft) or total lengths longer than 3,000 metres (9,843 ft).
^Its existence is not proven, it is a theory of archaeologists on the ancient Mayan city of Yaxchilan.[1]
^The construction of the aqueduct began around 1760 and was not finished until 1854 after having remained unfinished for a long time.[10]
^In 2012, the Arcediano Bridge was moved 700 meters downstream from the original building, to make way for what would be the construction of the Arcediano Dam.[11]
^Also called Ingeniero Antonio Dovalí Jaime Bridge.
^Also called Ingeniero Gilberto Borja Navarrete Bridge.
