China closes 'scary' glass bridges due to 'safety problems'

A Chinese province has closed its prized scenic glass bridges, walkways and viewing decks due to "safety problems".
Since March, 2018, Heibei province has been shutting glass-bottom bridges across its 24 scenic locations, citing "a lack of national standard and supervision" for the tourist attractions, according to Chinese state-owned news service ECNS.
Now all 32 bridges are closed.
Among those closed was the Hongyagu glass bridge — which held the title of the world's longest glass bridge up until May this year — stretching 488 metres between two steep cliffs.
Heibei province was reportedly the first to introduce regional requirements of construction materials, designs and visitor numbers for the glass structures before announcing the closures, according to reports.
The announcement was followed by South China's Guandong province, which also demanded changes to similar bridges in its six different locations.
'Safety issues' raised following deaths, injuries

Glass bridges have boomed in popularity in the past two years, believed to be sparked by the completion of the Zhangjiajie bridge in Hunan province — the world's highest and longest glass-bottom bridge when it first opened in 2016.
There are now about 2,300 glass bridges across the country, as well as a number of glass walkways and slides, which are considered a huge domestic tourist drawcard.
However, a series of accidents and "safety issues" may lead to others considering the safety of the attraction.
Earlier this year, six people were injured and one tourist died after falling off a glass slide in the Guangxi province.

It was reported that a man flew off the slide and died from severe head injuries because rain had made the slide extra slippery.
In 2016, a tourist was injured by falling rocks on a bridge in the Hunan Province and the following year a person died due to an accident on a glass slide in Heibei province.
State-media CGTN said the Chinese Government announced it would carry out comprehensive safety checks on all glass structures.
On Chinese social media, Weibo, users described their experience on one of the glass bridges in the Chinese city of Sanya as "scary".
