Sign on Town Bridge on the River Weaver commemorating extensive repair work carried out . A crane which was being used to build the Millennium Dome was transported to Northwich especially for the job. The bridge was moved to a nearby car park for repairs, but the move did not go as smoothly as planned. The lift had to be delayed for two days as the 330 tonne bridge was too heavy for the crane.
I was actually among quite a large crowd who witnessed the bridge being lifted back into position, but as this happened in the hours or darkness was unable to get any photos.
