Lake Pontchartrain Causeway – Louisiana, USA

This is another bridge that elicits aquaphobia, the fear of water, for most people because it stretches out 23.86 miles over water. The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway even broke the record for its legacy as the world’s longest continuous bridge. Initially, the Guinness World Record crowned it the longest bridge over water since 1969 but since China’s Jiaozhou Bay Bridge came up in 2011, they changed the entry to the longest continuous bridge.  Construction of the Louisiana-based bridge began in 1956 and it set the state back by about $46 million. It’s the best tranquil route for motorists who love long drives from or to the New Orleans suburb Metairie and Mandeville in Louisiana.
