Bridge construction barge, Iowa City


There is a new pedestrian bridge under construction on the Iowa River, to replace the one this picture is shot from. Unusually in my experience, the bridge construction appears to be getting carried out almost entirely from a barge that sits permanently floating in the middle of the river, moving back and forth doing things like setting up coffer dams and installing beams into the river bed.
