Dubai Smile - Eye-catching Inverted Metal Bridge and Used Construction Equipment

Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum has just approved another landmark project that would benefit used construction equipment. The Dubai Smile, an eye-catching inverted metal bridge, has been approved as the seventh river crossing in the emirate and will be completed in 2012.

For used construction equipment, go to MSloane Consulting.

The 12 lane bridge, which is 61.6m wide and has a 100m high arch, will be capable of handing 24,000 vehicles an hour and cost about £110m to build. The bridge will replace Dubai's Floating Bridge over Dubai Creek and aim to reduce appalling traffic congestion.
