Hastings Bridge Move - Part 1 (Land to Barge)

We moved the new Hastings Bridge onto a barge last week. Check out 12 hours of work in this time lapse video. We again used the new self-propelled modular transporter, the same device we used to move the Maryland Ave. Bridge into place a couple of weeks ago.

Later this week we hope to float this span into place and lift it onto the new bridge. Check back here for more details as we get them.
