Talk:Skarnsund Bridge

Longest by total length?
A citation or additional information is needed for the claim in the article that the bridge was the longest cable-stayed bridge in the world by total length when it opened (until beaten by the Millau Bridge). This does not seem to be the case to me; the Sunshine Skyway has a longer total length.

! Bridge ! Longest Span ! Total Length of Cable Supported Spans ! Total Length of Bridge (includes all approach spans) ! Deck Cross Section Concrete, Steel composite, Orthotropic ! Year Opened The page says there are eight spans. The pictures of the bridge show the cable-stay back spans have columns. Does the 1,010 m total length include any spans that are not cable supported?

Does anyone know of a page that lists the lengths of the back spans (between columns)? Should the article say longest total cable-supported length?- SCgatorFan 22:38, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
