Dubai to Build World’s Largest Arch Bridge
Dubai’s the biggest little city in the world. With the world’s largest mall, world’s largest water tower, and the world’s largest indoor ski park already on its resume, the city is now adding the world’s largest arch bridge.
The one-mile long, 612-ft tall bridge will begin construction in March and see a 2012 completion. The bridge will accommodate a metro line and 12 lanes of traffic, said to carry more than 2,000 vehicles each direction, each hour. Would it matter if it didn’t? Dubai is about excess, right?

Ever wonder where they get their money? Same place the people in Las Vegas do. From morons.
Alternative fuel! Now!

That's a lot of "world's biggest". Sounds like they're overcompensating for something.

Well when the oil runs out they have to be able to keep investors or attract new ones. Why do you think they're building up so much. They better hope their plan works or they're gonna end up with a lot of "world's largest" but not enough people.
