Veterans Bridge Fall River MA

Veterans Bridge Fall River MA

A while back I shared some shots of the Braga Bridge in Fall River and mentioned that driving to that Bridge I saw another bridge I thought looked pretty photogenic especially in the dark when it was lit up with colored lights, so I decided to one morning after catching the sunrise at another spot to head and try to get some shots of the bridge, which happens to be the Veterans memorial Bridge.

Now to be honest I didn't find an spot with a great view of the bridge on the Fall River side but did get some shots to share for this post

The Veterans Memorial Bridge is a bascule bridge connecting Somerset, Massachusetts and Fall River, Massachusetts. The bridge carries U.S. Route 6 and Route 138 over the Taunton River, with connecting ramps to Route 79, and includes a bike path on its north side. The $290 million bridge was dedicated to area veterans on September 11, 2011.[2] The bike path was also dedicated in a separate ceremony that same day in honor of Pvt. Michael E. Bouthot, who was killed in action in Iraq in 2006.

I believe that structure to the right of the bridge is the old bridge that this one replaced, the bridge itself is gone but the support structure remains.

I like that first shot with the blue skies and the last shot of the seaside village. Bridges are always good subjects it seems. Have a great Saturday

I remember during high school my friends and I would go and hang out under a bridge. It has the same vibes as this one. I don't remember though if people fish there but many teens were hanging out there because of the nice view and cool breeze.
Your shots are wonderful by the way!
