August 2007 (37.3635 Degrees, 138.5478 Degrees) Osu Bashi |
Not only was the north abutment wet, but it looked like the box girder had banged pretty hard into the backwall. Also, note just a single bearing is supporting the superstructure.
Back on the northwest side of the bridge is another plaque giving the pertinent facts about the design and construction of the Osu Bridge. It says 1978 and 1983 which must be the dates when it was designed and constructed.
