NY4624 : Steelwork for the new Pooley Bridge

taken 4 years ago, near to Pooley Bridge, Cumbria, England

Steelwork for the new Pooley Bridge
Steelwork for the new Pooley Bridge
The outer skeleton of the new bridge has been constructed on the former Dunmallard car park, now the building site for the bridge. More steel is, I believe, expected to be delivered to the site shortly. When the steelwork and the footings are complete the bridge will be lifted into place by crane. However Cumbria County Council have recently confirmed that the opening date has been pushed back from April to June.
