Why didn't Qiongzhou Strait build a cross-sea bridge?

The reasons for not building the cross-sea bridge in Qiongzhou Strait are as follows:

1. funds: the construction cost of the cross-sea bridge is extremely high, which is expected to reach140 billion yuan, which is a huge financial burden for any local government. Although the cross-sea bridge may bring economic benefits in the long run, there may not be enough funds to undertake such construction projects in the short term.

2. Channel impact: Qiongzhou Strait is an important shipping channel, and the construction of the bridge may have an impact on the ship's channel. The bridge body should not be too short so as not to hinder the passage of ships, but it will increase the structure and maintenance cost of the bridge body.

3. Environmental impact: Qiongzhou Strait is rich in natural resources and is a place where many fishing boats operate. Building a bridge may destroy these ecological environments and affect the livelihood of fishermen.

4. Geological conditions: Qiongzhou Strait is located at the intersection of plates, with complex geological conditions, frequent earthquakes and complex seabed topography. It is difficult to find a stable fulcrum in a place with deep tidal current and rapid water flow, which increases the technical difficulty and risk of construction.

5. Weather factors: Qiongzhou Strait is located in a high-risk area of natural disasters and is hit by typhoons every year. This extreme weather condition is a great challenge to the design, construction and use of the bridge.

6. Port utilization: There are many excellent natural ports in this area, where many ships dock and supply. The construction of the bridge may cause these ports to be unable to continue to use and affect the berthing and navigation of ships.
