It cost over half a billion euros and has taken more than eight years to build but finally the bridge linking Cádiz to Puerto Real has been inaugurated.
Town hall authorities at the Italian city claim a multi-million euro bridge designed by Spanish super-architect Santiago Calatrava has needed €464,000 ($633,000) in repair costs since it was erected in 2008.
The grand opening of Chile's first ever drawbridge has been delayed after allegations at least one traffic deck had been installed upside down. Now the country's president is blaming the project's Spanish developer for the mistake.
