New bridge

I've been promising ds6 that we'd go check out the new bridge under construction a couple of miles from our house. We finally made it today! We took a bike ride down the rail trail, went around the barricades and onto the "closed" portion of the trail, and got up close and personal with the construction site. My favorite part was how pretty it looks already! The rail trail will be routed underneath the bridge, and that portion has a pretty white stone facade with a nice arched "tunnel" for the trail to pass through. DS' favorite part was the fact that there are two cranes, one on either side of the river, and one of them was working! I'd love to be able to watch when they lift the segments of the span and put them into place, but that's probably a slow process and who knows when it will be. We'll have to ride down and check it out every now and then, anyway.
