    Did someone say that the deck is manufactured on land in the same place and that as new sections are completed, the older sections are pushed out towards the river along the pillars?

    The two last aerial shots are quite a few weeks old, aren't they?

    I see things are getting rather serious now - can't be too long before we start seeing the upper pylons rising as the balanced cantilever construction progresses.

    Beautiful pics, M17. There really is no finer sight than brand-new infrastructure. Can't wait to drive this next year.

    Will they start construction of the bridge deck from the second side also or just continue to build across from one side?

    I notice the "hammer head" section is not complete yet on P3. It looks like it'll be needed very soon.

    Each stretch of the bridge deck is manufactured in a fixed pre fabrication area behind the abutment,each new stretch is joined to the previously built and pushed by a hydraulic system,so the bridge deck is sliding on the piers that are previously built

    They're not launching it. They're using the method seen in this video, moving the falsework rather than the bridge deck. You can see this from the update photos.
