On June 27, a bridge in Livingston was closed because high water flow was causing one of the piers to sink. A Bailey Bridge, which is a surplus military temporary bridge, was built. It took a week to put it up, directly over the old bridge. It clear-spans a branch of the Yellowstone- 200 ft. I got to help work on it Wednesday-Friday.
All of the bridge was assembled without a crane, but one was used to lift it off of temporary supports and then the bridge was lowered onto the bearings.
