A timelapse video (widescreen version) of the accelerated bridge construction technique designed by HNTB for westbound side of Interstate 84 near Southeast, New York. Following the demolition of the existing bridge, engineers and crews "slide" the previously built bridge span in place, dramatically limiting the closure time to one weekend.

That is freaking sensational..

Take that from someone who's seen a few bridges.

I could list the reasons why that would never happen in Australia..

Watching that video my head was just crunching numbers on how much work it would take to get all your eggs in one basket to pull off something like that. Definitely outside the box thinking..
