ABOVE- This is new bridge construction, by the Susquehanna Valley Construction Corporation. The location is where Pennsylvanial State Route 655 crosses the Juniata River at the town of Mapleton Junction.
This is a close-up aerial view of the bridge pier and abutment construciton, taken from the middle of the river. The close-up view on the "Supporting Ground Shots" page was taken from the old bridge (from the position shown by the yellow arrow).
BELOW- This is an overall aerial view of the same project. The contractor wanted us to show the staining methods used to simulate old stone work on these bridge supports, as shown on the finished pier in the foreground.
