  The Hangzhou Bridge under construction has been carrying expectations and dreams of millions of people. On May Day the bridge was finally open to traffic. It's a dream fulfilled, no matter for the bridge builders, the investors or the common people. People were very much excited and gave it a big celebration.

  At the site of opening ceremony, flags are waving everywhere, people expecting amid joy and excitement. The builders from around the country gather again on the bridge which they have been devoted to for a number of years. The opening of the bridge is the best reward they have been long expecting.

  Mr. Mao Lixiang, an investment shareholder of the Bridge, says the bridge is not only the dream of Cixi people, but an expectation of the investors. He says he is quite moved that thousands have come to watch the bridge.

  While building the bridge, the builders feel strongly that only when the country is strong can they fulfill the task of building a world-longest bridge.

  Yan Hongjun, Chief of Finance Division, the HBB Construction Headquarters: I’m very excited today. The grand project could have never been completed without the strong support in capital and technology.

  Yandong town is five kilometers away from the south end of the bridge. Today people feel most happy. Though they can not get on the bridge yet, they feel content with having an overlook of the bridge.

  After the ceremony, the bridge is to open to traffic at 23:58 the very night.
