The old railroad bridge

There's an old railroad bridge in Trondheim. The kind they open when boats have to pass. It was built in 1918, but is now in the way of a new road-project which will lead traffic around the centre of the city. The bridge was constructed by Joseph B. Strauss which also constructed Golde Gate Bridge in San Fransisico. Now the Directorate for Cultural Heritage in Norway has stopped any plans that would alter the bridge.

Yesterday, during this spring's first kayak tour, we paddeled under the bridge.
