The Johnson St bridge, or as it had become known, the Blue Bridge (guess what colour it is), was a long standing Victoria icon. A few years ago it was assessed to have reached its expiry date and after a lot of wrangling, delays and cost overruns a new bridge was completed this spring. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson_Street_Bridge
Removing the old bridge was another engineering feat. Over many weeks, the it was separated from the rest of the structure, lifted on to a barge by a huge crane, named the Dynamic Beast
Slowly, slowly the bridge is lowered on to the barge.
