What a Drag it is growing old - an update on the La Salle Causeway lift bridge 4K 

Love the monster shears! Thanks for your dedication to covering this, Mike!

Amazing work capturing this historic event. Thank you!

Mike, you do this in such an engaging way. Incredibly cool footage, this is really precision work

I work with Both companies several times in my career….Great companies one that move anything ( Western) the other I always felt safe during there projects (Priestly Demolition Inc.)..Sad to see the old LaSalle Bridge going away

Thanks for my close up

Thanks for my closeup

What a crying shame. Such a beautiful and historic piece of Kingston. By the time demolition and replacement is done they could have just built a third (idiotic 2 lane bridge) across further down the river. The causeway draw bridge matched the historic RMC beside it.

Neat! Love that they used my idea to remove the bridge deck! Though not quite in the same way I was thinking. I was thinking they used some of those Mammoet lifters on a barge instead, but that works too.

Those Chomping Shears are eating away at the Bridge as if it were made of Pick-up Sticks! Wouldn't want to be around it when cutting.

What a drag it is when ppl destroy a 100 year old landmark by doing maintenance? And then no one is held responsible and the tax payer pays the bill. Not to mention the mess this has made of traffic, try getting an ambulance across the river and down town to our hospitals. And what is everyone concerned about? The Rideau canal being open to big boats, forget that, if you are too big to go under the existing fixed bridge then try another canal. This bridge should just be abandoned, leave the deck as is and raise the fixed bridge high enough for a reasonable sized boat to pass under. The hassle this causeway has been over the past 5 years as they close it every year or bring it down to 1 lane has been too much, get rid of it, we are too big a city for it now, just build a proper damn bridge here.
