There will be a rapid bridge replacement occurring in Ottawa (Canada) tomorrow night (Aug 11) starting at 8:00 pm EDT. It involves replacing two bridges on the main highway through the centre of Ottawa. A web cam has been set up for everyone to watch. Go to

for the link to the web cam.

If you're near Ottawa they have set up a viewing grandstand at the intersection of Island Park Drive and Merivale Road. It'll probably be busy for a while until people realize that despite the name it's a pretty slow process.

Enjoy
