Traffic in Albany has been interrupted several times over the past few days, as large concrete beams are transported through town en-route to the bridge construction that is on-going for the southern section of the Albany Bypass.

The beams were “backed” down Town Hill before the turn was made onto Fairgrounds Road and then onto the bridge construction site.

Above, one of the beams is seen as it came down Town Hill backwards. At left, Ross Dalton watches the close clearance being made by the truck operator at Lowhorn’s Car Wash.
