One gone!

The barge in the background (R) has removed one of the two iconic towers from the old bridge, with the span on which it stood, and taken it to the shore where it is being dismantled. Meanwhile, the concrete counterweight of the other lifting tower has now been removed. Best viewed large, I'd suggest.

If you have a few moments, I highly recommend the drone photos in this link showing the barge commencing the span removal.

Another week gone! All my best wishes for a very Happy Fence Friday and for a safe and enjoyable weekend, everyone.

A lovely curve n the new bridge. The drone photos are very interesting too, and the one taken directly overhead shows the removed sections exactly.

Yes almost gone now. We have lived with you here watching the demise of this beautiful old bridge. Maybe a crime? Thanks for sharing.
