Part of the massive Hong Kong Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) project, Dragages Hong Kong and VSL have been joining hands to design and construct this 9.4-km long dual three-lane viaduct section. Upon the completion of this new land transport link, commuters will take only some 45 minutes to reach Zhuhai from the Hong Kong Airport – compared to 4 hours at present.
This pre-cast segmental bridge with the world’s longest span of 180m is being constructed with 5,714 pcs of pre-cast segments. To cope with the complex bridge alignment, more than 250 different types of segments are produced in various dimensions and sometimes unsymmetrical.
On 19th September, our project team members, together with management teams from the HZMB HK Project Management Office and the segment provider (CCCC2), celebrated the production of the 5,000th segments and completion of all segment-on-pier (SOP) parts. The celebration was held on site in the segment factory located in the mainland.

Chan Man (Project Director of Dragages-China Habour-VSL Joint Venture) remarked, “Congratulations to CCCC2 for the successful completion of over 5,000 pcs. of segments under safe conditions. While achieving high quality safety performances, zero accident remains our ultimate goal.”
