The videos below show the installation of the prefabricated bridges over Phillippi Creek and over a canal just west of Beneva Rd. According to Brett, the canal bridge was installed as a single span of 75 feet, whereas the 150-foot-span Phillippi Creek bridge was assembled mid-air from two 75-foot sections before being laid to rest. The crews worked past sunset to secure the bridge. Additional video showing the bridge in place was obtained the next morning. Thanks again to Brett Koppes, “The Sarasota Drone Guy”, for the drone video.
