Caltrans release:
Crews have now taken down the second segment of the old Eel River Bridge along U.S. 101 near Rio Dell. We captured it in a timelapse video so you can see hours of work in just under a minute.
What remains of the bridge is expected to be removed by the end of September followed by removal of the temporary rock berm by mid-October. Work will continue outside the river channel through the winter, and crews are expected to begin installing piles for the new bridge next summer.
Follow us here for more project updates, and check out the video from the most recent work at the site.
