    FLHT: it looks like you're living in a beautiful location Thanks for the pics. CDOT is replacing an old WW2 era bridge here starting this month. Several big concrete chunks fell out while cars drove over it, and you could see a 4' dia. hole right through to the river below.

    They are gonna build the new one next to the old one, and slide it onto the old piers after tearing off the old deck. Supposed to keep traffic moving without interuption.

    I watched em do that to a section of Hwy 213 a major road. They closed it long enough one night to slide the new section into place. That was pretty cool.

    Here is what the new bridge is supposed to look like when it gets finished. Now the log trucks won't smack the top anymore when crossing. That old steel bridge really got beat up.
