New Wear Crossing

On Tuesday 21st November we visited the New Wear Crossing. We spent time learning about a variety of things linked to the bridge, such as; the clearing of the sight, construction of the bridge, how it will effect the city, costing of the bridge and materials and future business and projects. Karen showed us images which showed clear progression from the beginning of the project to where it is now. During the visit we also got the opportunity to actually see and feel some of the main parts of the bridge (the pylon). Just before we left we were able to go up onto the viewing platform and see the bridge in all its glory. We got some wonderful pictures!
