The bridge, which will span the 198-m-deep Msikaba river gorge, is being constructed by the CME joint venture (JV), a partnership between Concor and MECSA, both 100% black-owned Grade 9CE South African construction companies.
The bridge’s four huge anchor blocks are now at an advanced stage of construction, with more than 50% of the concrete for the two 127-m-high pylons poured, and the complex deck construction phase of the project about to start.
At 580 m in length, it will the longest cable-stayed bridge – in terms of main span – in Africa, and it will have the second longest main span of any bridge on the continent.
At 192 m above the floor of the gorge, it will also rank as one of the highest bridges in Africa, only exceeded by the Bloukrans bridge at 216 m and, once it is completed, Mtentu [bridge] at 223 m.
The bridge is being built from both the north and south banks of the gorge and comprises two identical halves, each spanning 290 m.
The halves will meet mid-point over the gorge.

Adomi Bridge . Spans the Volta River that drains into the Gulf of Guinea, south of the Akosombo Dam.
It is a two-hinged steel arch bridge with a deck suspended by cables. It was designed in 1956 and completed in 1957 by William Brown, of the engineers Freeman Fox & Partners
How to get to Atimpoku
The town can be accessed from all parts of Ghana. Accra the capital of Ghana is about 65 kilometres from Atimpoku and Tema is also 50 kilometres away. These two cities are well linked to Atimpoku by the Accra - Tema motorway, and from Tema to Akosombo via highway, passing shortly after Tema the Shai Hills Resource Reserve and Krobo mountains. There are local “TroTro” mini buses available, from Tema and / or Accra.
However, if you start you trip from the north of Ghana and you will have to go through the eastern corridor and you will cross over the Adomi Bridge. The bridge is linking the Eastern region and the Volta region of Ghana.
Traveling to Akosombo (from Tema centre about 76 km), the bridge will be on your right hand side. Akosombo port; Trave further by ferry to Northern Ghana. You may take your car (small), on the ferry. Travel time about 30 hours, via Lake Volta.
The bridge connects parts of the Eastern Region and Juapong in the North Tongu District, Ho, Hohoe and other towns in the Volta Region.

Africa's Longest Arch Bridge - Birchenough Bridge Zimbabwe
The bridge crosses Zimbawe's longest and widest river called Save.
Birchenough Bridge is Zimbabwe's finest piece of Engineering and one of the wonders of world Engineering. The structure is the third longest single-arch bridge in the world, second only to the bridge over Sydney Harbour and to the Bayonne Bridge, New York.(USA).
Birchenough bridge was designed by Mr. Ralph Freeman who assisted in designing the bridge over the. Zambezi at the Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe and the bridge over Sydney Harbour. The bridge is named after Sir Birchnough who was the chairman of Beit Trust and assisted in the building of the bridge. Sir Henry Birchenough ashes are buried beneath the structure of the bridge.
Work started in June 1934. The bridge was officially opened on December 20, 1935, by Sir Herbert Stanley, then Governor of Southern Rhodesia. It was build under 2 years.
The staff comprised some thirty Europeans, and half that number were skilled steel erectors and crane drivers from England. Nearly 600 locals were employed as laborers on the work.Remarkable.
Ladies and gentleman enjoy some never seen footage of Birchnough bridge.
Could this be the oldest bridge in AFRICA !!!
