New Forth road bridge.

The new bridge crossing the river Forth will be called The Queensferry Crossing, [It crosses from north queensferry to south queensferry], so that's an apt name.
Work is progressing well and the central pillars are all up to a certain level, I was there today and took some photos.

Looks impressive indeed - but why do they need another one?

It's really impressive I hope to be able to go regularly and see it getting built.

They reckon that the other one is past it's best and the new one will take the strain of off it.

Thanks, Braveheart ! I'm the kind of idiot that expects that sort of thing to last forever!
