Adams Basin Erie Canal bridge work progress update

Don Price reported: "The shrouds came down last week. Now we are cutting rusted steel out and scrapping it. Next we'll be putting a new bottom chord (the horizontal portion of the trusses), then we'll replace the floor beams." The shrouds covered the entire bridge since late spring so scraping and sand blasting could take place. Photograph by Walter Horylev.
