Capital Causeway

Capital Causeway is a 4-lane bridge crossing the Ratarata Straight, joining Capital Island to the Big Island. Directly linking Crestview with Hugoto. The bridge has a total length, including approaches of 3,552.6 metres. It provides the largest connection over the straight. It has a dedicated bus lane and also a train track route in the middle of both lanes.

History
At the beginning of the great depression, Mirani was hit relatively hard and so the government needed a new way to create jobs. Along with a new dam on Capital Island, the bridge created many new jobs and opened up development to the less developed Big Island. Once the bridge was completed, a national marathon was created, opening up the bridge to pedestrians for those who were up for the incredibly long walk. Cities started to grow faster on the big island, and lowering the percentage of citizens living in Crestview, decreasing the nation's total urbanisation and starting the growth of farms in the area.

Expansion
After increasing traffic problems on the bridge, the government finally gave the money to MiraniRoads so an upgrade could finally be constructed to ease traffic flow in both directions. The bridge was upgraded from 4 lanes to 8 lanes.
