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.

Me too! Framing the work in progress with the sinuous line of the new bridge was a stroke of genius, George!
Thank you for the link to the drone photos, too. You are right, they are quite spectacular.

A super shot George and great framing. I love the curve of the bridge and the image is even better on full screen. I enjoyed the drone shots too.

Have a good evening
