Looking across the old bridge, with a clutter of working equipment in the foreground. While the new bridge is far more elegant, it is to a standard design and near identical to other new bridges right up the coast of New South Wales. The "industrial style" old bridge was distinctively different and had more or less become the symbol of Batemans Bay.

HFF and best wishes for the weekend, everyone.

Here in Germany, the age of bridge renewals has also begun for some time...

A wonderful take on this old friend, George. I am pretty sure, once it's gone, somewhere they will collect photos to document its long service to the community. I think yours should be there! You documented faithfully the whole saga of construction and might now have to document the taking apart of the "Old Faithful".

Many thanks for your very generous comment, Annalia. It seemed an interesting process to catch for historical purposes.

i think the key is what is to happen with the old bridge removed or kept as history. HFF you have a great weekend all the best from the west.

tiabunna club has replied to Steve Paxton club
Sadly, the plan is to remove it entirely - due to finish early 2023. HFF, Steve.

A shame to see history destroyed but I guess it's all in the name of progress, a nice capture from a terrific perspective |George
HFF and a nice weekend.

tiabunna club has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
Thank you very much, Roger. Sadly, I think you're right about 'progress'. The traffic levels are constantly increasing so the need is probably there. I hope you are having a great weekend.

With the demands of modernity, the charm of past times is often lost.
Yet, life also means constant change. And that also has its good points.
HFF, George, and all the best for the weekend and beyond.

Thank you, yes change is indeed constant and I'm sure in a few years the changes will be fully accepted as "part of the landscape". I hope your weekend is going well.

I seem to remember that you said the old bridge is to be demolished. Maybe they will save it as it's a symbol of Bateman's Bay.

Thank you, Amelia. Sadly, the demolition is already beginning, it's to be totally gone by early 2023.

Great shots and fun to see the new one, so gleaming, next to this old workhorse whose days are numbered. I wonder how long it will be before this bridge is disassembled?

Many thanks, Janet. Yes, it's quite a comparison. As I just wrote to Amelia, the old bridge is scheduled to go totally by early 2023.
