Bridge over the bridge

Working occasionally in the Beauharnois Canal area to the west of Montreal has provided an opportunity to see some of the construction of the new Highway 30 bridge being built near the upstream end of Beauharnois Lock #4. http://www.na30.ca/?lang=en-CA

It is a pretty impressive sight when viewed from up close or seen spanning the entire canal.

I'm sure Ontarians and Maritimers will be ecstatic when it is completed and they will be able to go around the island of Montreal instead of needing to traverse the dreaded 20 or 40. Hopefully, it will help alleviate some of the on-island traffic for Montrealers too.


Still, if you are not on a bicycle, you can't beat travelling by water even if you are a windmill part.
