Forth Road Bridge: Drone video footage shows daring repair work under way
ByThe Courier Reporter
New video footage released by Forth Road Bridge chiefs shows the daring efforts being made to bring the crossing back into service.
The drone footage by contractor Amey shows workers hundreds of feet in the air inspecting suspension cables above the bridge carriageways, while others are shown abseiling down to where repairs are being carried out on trusses.
Bridge chiefs have now agreed a plan to fix the faulty truss end links and remain confident the bridge will reopen early in the New Year.
