The world’s longest suspension bridge to be built in Hungary?! – PHOTOS

According to the plans, the 700-meter-long suspension bridge will be constructed between the two mountain peaks of Sátoraljaújhely (Zemplén) for EUR 11.3 million (~HUF 4 billion).

A new pedestrian bridge project will be carried out in Hungary in the mountain peaks of Zemplén. As the Hungarian news portal Magyar Építők reports, the public procurement of the extralarge suspended bridge has been won by Graboplan Industrie Ltd., which will carry out the project from EUR 11.3 million (~HUF 4 billion).

The procurement has been realised for the second time after it had ended unsuccessfully for the first time in March. The reason then was that the financial resource of EUR 7.9 million (~HUF 2.8 billion) available at that time was not enough to conclude the contract. Since then, it seems that the budget has increased to carry out the project – reported by Portfolio.

For visitors, the bridge will be approachable from the hiking trails that will be built on Várhegy and Szárhegy, as well as those connected to existing roads and promenades.

The area of ​​the bridgeheads can only be entered within the opening hours of the Zemplén Adventure Park, after buying an entrance ticket.
