| 摘要： | A 92-year-old bridge over the Cumberland River at Smithland, Ky., was successfully imploded November 30. Known as the Old U.S. 60 Cumberland River Bridge or the Lucy Jefferson Lewis Memorial Bridge, the bridge at Cumberland River Mile 2.7 opened to traffic in 1931. The river was closed to navigation at 8 a.m. November 30 and was expected to remain closed for 36 hours, until 8 p.m. December 1, to allow a barge-mounted crane to remove pieces of the steel truss from the river. Crowds gathered at nearby viewing points before the initial blast took down the main truss and two approach spans after a 3-2-1 countdown. Two additional blasts will be scheduled at about two-week intervals to take down remnants of the old bridge, including the concrete piers and concrete abutments. |
