Bridging the Eel River III - the stairway to work

Posted by Stephen Phillips (San Francisco, United States) on 13 November 2008 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

The old 'Redwood Highway' twisted along the granite faces above the Eel River - through north coastal California. The road is now almost completely high-speed four lane blacktop. This bridge will replace one of the few remaining 'old' sections.

For the workers on the north and south ends of the bridge - getting to work is no problem. They simply park their cars and trucks and walk onto the span. But for those assigned to the center section, the only access is this stairway. Now here is a morning workout to start the day. [series: four of four]
