Wide-angle of details of a temporary pedestrian bridge rented by the local Rail Trail conservancy to cross over a local state highway. The plan is to replace the bridge with a permanent bridge next year.
The Shin Railway Viaduct (also known as the Invershin Viaduct or Oykel Viaduct) is a railway viaduct that crosses the Kyle of Sutherland.The viaduct carries the Far North Line between Inverness and Wick and Thurso. Invershin railway station is at the north-eastern end of the viaduct, while Culrain railway station is a short distance to the south.
It was built for the Sutherland Railway by engineers Joseph Mitchell and Murdoch Paterson.
The railway opened to traffic on 13 April 1868.
It crosses the river with a single 230 feet (70 m) span, 20 feet (6.1 m) longer than that used at the Dalguise Viaduct by Mitchell four years earlier. The deck which carries the track sits on top of rather than between the truss girders. There are two semicircular stone arches in the approach viaduct to the south, and three to the north.
A footbridge was added to the northern side of the viaduct in 2000. This is now part of National Cycle Network Route 1.

Above the town of Bad Ragaz in the Canton St. Gallen in Switzerland is a new bridge under construction, now almost finished. The Tamina bridge connects the mountain villages Pfäfers and Valenz, has a span of 475 meters, towers 200 meters above the Tamina gorge, and costs 56 million Swiss Francs. It was a cloudy day, good for HDR processing.
I processed a paintery and a balanced HDR photo from three RAW exposures, merged them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, reduced the color saturation, and added some sepia to get this classic look.

A highlight just outside Essing (Bavaria) is the so—called Tatzelwurm, which is a pretty impressive waved wooden bridge and, with a lengths of more than 600 feet, also the longest one in Europe.

A view of life in Long Island City which lies across the East River from Manhattan as the relentless construction of the massive Queensboro Bridge completely changes the character of the still partially wooded neighborhood.
With spring arriving early in Alaska - bridge building is already taking place. Here you see the worker's driving the pilings into the river that will support the roadway. A beautiful sight for winter weary eyes.
If you are driving north this summer - you will encounter this scene just a few miles east of Tok, Alaska. But don't be at all concerned, because to the right you will see a paved "go around".
Taken in January 2017, the three towers of the Queensferry Crossing stand their ground in strong winds, whereas I struggled to keep tripod upright and my lens clean of spray. The Queensferry Crossing Opens this Wednesday to traffic and will be (is) the worlds longest 3-Tower Cable Stayed Bridge.
In 2013, I was able to capture this photograph of the newest version of the Veteran's Memorial Bridge across the Cumberland River on Highway 109 connecting Wilson and Sumner Counties in Middle Tennessee. It was taken during the construction at a point where all the piers or supports were in place and the structure for the decking was being installed. Also seen in this photo is the old bridge on the right that was also referred to as the Cumberland River Bridge or the Martha Gallatin Bridge. Today, the bridge in the center is the focal point of crossing the Cumberland here on 109 and the bridge of the right no longer exists.
This photo was taken in 2013 during my previous Project 365…please visit my album for this “REMASTERED” Project 365 as I revisit each day of 2013 for additional photos to share!!
Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D5200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

(Actually, it turns out that this bridge is being rented temporarily (?!) by the rail-trail conservancy and will be replaced by a permanent bridge next year. My son the engineer wondered if this might be the case, since it looks like the bridge could easily be disassembled and reassembled.)
My Californian Flickrfriend Mark Gunn had a conversation about this very project with a client in the USA the other day. What a small world it is and full of synchronicities. The New Mersey Crossing is part of "The Mersey Gateway Project". I used one of my Mersey Watercolour paintings as a background to this collection just because the tones fitted so well.
Sessler excavator on a construction site at which a new bridge is being built across an underlying road, replacing an obsolete railroad bridge that was beyond repair. The bridge will serve the rail trail that now crosses through this area. The "steps" at lower right will provide the anchor for one end of the deck of the bridge.

The rivers in HCMC are busy waterways and they have many bridges crossing them and many more under construction. This bridge will cross NHA Be River.
