Default OT - Kingsferry Bridge


I just noticed that this aerial shot has managed to catch the Kingsferry
Bridge up in the air! I'd imagine that's a rare occurrence, because there
can't be many ships go that way...

A somewhat out-of-date picture - the new bridge has been open since
July 2006, and was under construction for about three years before
that.

ISTR visiting the bridge control room about ten years ago and being
told it opened once a day, on average.

Thanks, I'm surprised.
