Those of us that live west of downtown Lincoln, NE have a habit of using the Harris Overpass to get to our homes, literally, the other side of the tracks. Well, about three weeks ago, the road was closed and the several-blocks-long bridge is being completely torn down and replaced. The project is scheduled to take a full year.
Yesterday, I went out and walked around and got some photos of the progress so far. My plan is to go out every few weekends and take some updated photos. You can watch my flickr set of the project if you’re interested in following along.
