A cloning factory is private property, a bridge is public access.

Presumably you think the technology in a cloning factory is more expensive than bridge making equipment, but maybe you're not taking into consideration the various codes and legal requirements that are necessary to build a bridge.

Haha what about the legal mess around cloning... seems like that would be a tad more expensive process than getting a licence to build a bridge...

The Chinese government is the one providing all of the money and pushing the program. I have a feeling that red tape is not as much of a problem for them as you assume.
