The landmark Danjiang Bridge in New Taipei is officially open to traffic, marking the end of a thirty-year planning and construction period. Designed by the late Zaha Hadid, it's the world’s longest single-tower asymmetric bridge. While many welcome the expected reduction in travel times crossing the Tamsui River, some cyclists are unhappy with the bridge's design and some local officials protested that they had been excluded from the official ceremony despite putting in years of work in coordinating the project.
