- In the video: The B1M follows the bridge’s construction at a remote site that needed 26 km of new road and on-site fabrication. It covers the wind, temperature and seismic problems, the arch design, the cable crane and deck launch, and the bridge’s place on a new 169-mile all-weather rail line.
- Why it matters: The whole video is about the bridge and its hostile canyon setting.
