It's debatable about the longest bridge. Now I've read that apparently there is no standard way to measure the total length of a bridge.
Some are measured from the beginning of the entrance ramp to the end of the exit ramp. Some from shoreline to shoreline, so no ranking of a bridge should be assumed because of it's position on the list . Also numbers are mere estimates and measures in US customary units and may be imprecise due to conversion error.
