Wapley bridge the morning after the night before

Work on the Wapley bridge came to a halt last night due to the wind and rain - it would have been unsafe to lift the new bridge sections in. We don't yet know the new timing for this but we're guessing next week, maybe New Year's Eve / New Year's Day.

Update 28 December - they've lifted the new bridge beams in! Picture to follow.


A train thunders past the gap and the crane. Parts of the new bridge are on the lorry on the right.



The gap, with the left-hand support being built up with concrete to the new height.
