A drive across the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway, northbound. • The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway, sometimes only The Causeway, is a fixed link composed of two parallel bridges crossing Lake Pontchartrain in southern Louisiana, United States. The longer of the two bridges is 23.83 miles (38.35 km) long. The southern terminus of the causeway is in Metairie, Louisiana, a suburb of New Orleans. The northern terminus is at Mandeville, Louisiana. • Since 1969, it was listed by Guinness World Records as the longest bridge over water in the world; in 2011, in response to the opening of the longer Jiaozhou Bay Bridge in China, Guinness World Records created two categories for bridges over water: continuous and aggregate lengths over water. Lake Pontchartrain Causeway then became the longest bridge over water (continuous while Jiaozhou Bay Bridge the longest bridge over water (aggregate). • The bridges are supported by 9,500 concrete pilings. The two bridges feature a bascule, which spans the navigation channel 8 miles (13 km) south of the north shore. • #Bridges • Music: • Riptide Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) • Disco Lounge Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) • Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License • http://creativecommons.org/licenses/b... • We are jasonh300 and sippigrrrl! • Check out our merchandise and help support our channel at https://shop.spreadshirt.com/504roadt... • Follow us on social media: • https://504roadtrips.spreadshirt.com/ • / 504roadtrips • / 504roadtrips • / 504roadtrips • https://504roadtrips.blogspot.com/ • / 504roadtrips • / 504roadtrips • Facts and information in our videos come from Wikipedia and other sources, and may or may not be factual.
