The South face
A view at the South side. Stitched 10 pictures together.
Next week, works will continue.
While we were out, ...
... construction works continued. The steel skeleton is ready. The pump has been turned off so the pond is filling again. The water still looks rusty but that should improve in a couple of days.
A fisheye view on the bridge
The steel frames forming the façade - again several pictures stitched together. And in real it's straight not curved.
Westlakebridge is born.
The crane
Ever wondered how they get these steel beams in place ?
Stitched some 10 pictures together to give you a view of the hoisting crane.
And yes, it looks a bit distorted.
Construction works continued today
The steel platform is being assembled.
Here, as seen from the back.
A piece of the puzzle
Where will this piece go in the steel jigsaw ?
(Answer probably later this week.)
Steel Jigsaw
Streetside view of hundreds of large and small steel parts to be put together as huge jigsaw puzzle.
A lot more to come
All steel and concrete elements have been delivered.
Construction will continue next week.
Surprise
The construction company called.
They've started this morning.
The first bearer is already in place.
Re-start pending
The construction company promised to re-start June 21 ...
Postponed till June 27 ...
Postponed again till July 3 in the last week before the construction holiday season starts ...
Another no show on July 3. Another promise : start in the week of July 9 in the first week of the holiday season ...
And also the weather turned bad, after a summerlike spring, we're having an automnlike summer.
So be patient - as soon as something moves, I'll post new pictures.
