Springfield Vermont has a brand spankin' new, old-fashioned box cantilever bridge in the works. Fancy News indeed, and a pleasure to watch the able crew briskly put together the huge set of elements that is enough to make any grown child regard with a bittersweet envy the delicious fun of assembling the shiny, zinc-dipped construction. One worker took a moment to describe succinctly the meaning behind all the activity, what with the electric lines being played with and the sudden appearance of a giant Tinker Toy set - this is available on the video, please see it here, and for a feel of the part that that original bridge played in the local context, see this too.
La novedad de un puente nuevo, hecho a mano y que no sea "a lo barato", es algo increible de observar, y vale comentar. Este puente, el antiguo, ha sido ya el tema de un video (aqui) que se trata de la parte que tiene en la vida local.
Hoy han parado los trabajadores para explicar en breve el cambio que efectuan, que consiste de quitar el puente antiguo y colocar con una grua el nuevo puente que fabrican en su lugar, un puente muy semejante, y muy agradable a la vista por eso - se ve aqui.
