Thanks art.I thought the bridge might have been saved for re-use,not scrapped.
Scrapped
Does anybody know what happened with this bridge?The reading eagle just said what I read in the paper and now I see disassembly photos?Let me know.Thanks.
as per an article printed in the reading eagle 5-12-15 the new bridge was opened for traffic.unfortunately Robert it is an ugly concrete span like I said a while ago.
thanks robert for the response.as of the present i do not know what this bridge will be replaced with either concrete or steel.if i was a betting man i would probably say concrete.if i do hear or know of anything in the future i will let you know.it is a shame this bridge is gone from what i have seen in the paper.
Thanks for letting us know. Sad news, but at least we can update the website.
being that I live near this bridge and read the reading eagle newspaper I hate to tell everyone that the berne bridge as of this date is no more.i did see a picture in the local newspaper which showed only the structure.in other words kiss this bridge goodbye forever.
I guess no one that was in a position to take it wanted it:
