Re building of the Jefferson Ave. bridge.
<span><span><strong>SPIRTAS Wrecking Co. was contracted to bring the old Jefferson Ave. bridge down.</strong></span></span>
<strong>The clean up went on all through the night as rail traffic continued to pass the work site.</strong>
<strong>A 350 ton crane is set up and prepares to set the last five girders into place as a train clears up heading east on UP #2.</strong>
<strong>The crew is ready to go to work as soon as the traffic clears. A special thanks to Dan-Hippie-Zuroweste for a professional job as site supervisor and Union Pacific Forman Lewis Barnes for keeping everyone safe.</strong>
<strong>Each girder weighs in at over 30 tons. The crew was very efficient and safety was the No. 1 concern. Gershenson Const. Co. gets the credit for rebuilding the bridge.</strong>
