Yes it is. One of the few drawbridges with an observation deck. Thanks for watching.

Since it was built,it has had more problems than any other bridge anywhere.Would have been cheaper if they built the tunnel instead.

I wish I would work at this bridge as operator, the bridge I working on is completely different! Big thumbs up to starting UA-camr just like me.
