According to this list, the Akashi Kaikyo bridge in Japan takes the title, with a main span of 1,991 meters (or 6,532 feet). There are bridges that actually cover longer distances, especially in the cable-stayed category, but the general rule in judging record-breaking bridges seems to be to consider the longest span, or the longest point-to-point connection without a pier or arch underneath.
