Work This picture taken in August 2005 is looking east
along the line of the new cut, with the existing canal bending sharp
right and then left to pass in front of the towers of the concrete
plant in the distance. On the left can be seen the huge concrete
blocks and steel rods that had anchored the existing piling, and
beyond them the crane and pile driver were working at the site of
the bridge to be built over the cut. |
