Closed off!

Looking across the old bridge, with a clutter of working equipment in the foreground. While the new bridge is far more elegant, it is to a standard design and near identical to other new bridges right up the coast of New South Wales. The "industrial style" old bridge was distinctively different and had more or less become the symbol of Batemans Bay.

HFF and best wishes for the weekend, everyone.

Hi Tiabunna, unfortunately this time you forgot the inserted photo for the "Picture in Picture" rule. If you still update it, it is also welcome in the PiP group. :)

A wonderful take on this old friend, George. I am pretty sure, once it's gone, somewhere they will collect photos to document its long service to the community. I think yours should be there! You documented faithfully the whole saga of construction and might now have to document the taking apart of the "Old Faithful".

i think the key is what is to happen with the old bridge removed or kept as history. HFF you have a great weekend all the best from the west.

Sadly, the plan is to remove it entirely - due to finish early 2023. HFF, Steve.
