More scenery....the first road carriageway section has just been winched up under what was at the time the longest single-span suspension bridge in the world. Each of these sections weighed over 400 tons and was winched up on 4 wires from a huge barge below.They have winched it higher than its eventual position so that it can be accessed more easily from the cables above.
I also worked on a similar bridge there for 6 months, after I brought the family to live in HK. I worked on a number of big construction projects through the nineties.
