The Yokohama Bay Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge with a 860-meter/2,820-foot span that crosses Tokyo Bay allowing traffic to skip traffic congestion on the bayshore route for quicker access to Tokyo. Completed in September 1989, the bridge was high enough to accommodate one of the world’s largest ships at that time—the Queen Elizabeth 2. Twenty years later, mega cruise ships are too tall to pass under the bridge and have to dock farther away from the central piers of Yokohama.
