Bridge Deck Elevation Increase

[hemmjo]

I stumbled onto this 6 year time-lapse video of the upgrade to an existing bridge.

The video description from YouTube; See the entire 6-year construction process for the Bayonne Bridge "Raise the Roadway" project with EarthCam's time-lapse movie. From 2013-2019, watch as the deck of the bridge is elevated from 151 feet to 215 feet. The Bayonne Bridge is an arch bridge spanning the Kill Van Kull connecting Bayonne, New Jersey with Staten Island, New York City.

I remember leaving Bayonne on a cruise in 2005 and the bottom of the bridge looked real close!
