[...] disdain for Dubai’s nouveau riche gaudiness — it would be a fun to work on one of these super-bridges. Long-span structures make it economical to use curvilinear members, which are a nice challenge [...]

Exactly Mike O. This would appear to be a GREAT “TARGET” once the government and/or people of Dubai sufficiently piss-off some radical extremist group. Best of “luck”!

Now in my imagination, they’ll fall into the water off of this bridge, so maybe they’ll have a better chance of surviving.
