Bascule Bridge - Barge Movement


A barge loaded with windfarm parts departed the River Cart this morning and will head South tomorrow with the tug - Dutch Pioneer.

So, I had another opportunity to witness the Bascule bridge rising to enable the barge to pass through and out to the River Clyde.

Another load will leave mid-July so will keep an eye out for that.
