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.
