Throughout history, bridges have been disassembled, pushed, and airlifted to new locations. But, sometimes, certain bridges are just too big to move. Or are they?
In this mind-boggling program from MEGA MOVERS, follow a team of experts who contend that one of the world s longest and most famous suspension bridges, San Francisco s Golden Gate Bridge, could be relocated. Explore the intricate planning and phenomenal machinery that would be needed to pull off this record-breaking move. Then, journey across the country to Rhode Island, where the team comes up against a massive challenge when they take on the job of hauling the world s widest network-arched bridge 15 miles upriver and giving it a new home.
Records were made to be broken and, apparently, bridges were made to be moved. Now, join HISTORYTM for a fascinating look at the seemingly impossible engineering feats required to move REALLY BIG BRIDGES.
