Niigata, Japan's Bridges; Hasaki Bridges on the Hokuriki Expressway (3)

August 2007 (37.315 Degrees, 138.437 Degrees) Hasaki Bridges
Another view of the Hasaki Bridges carrying the Hokuriki Expressway through the Yoneyama Valley. The northbound bridge had some abutment damage during the 2007 Kashiwazaki Earthquake. When we visited the bridge, they had driven sheet piles to hold back the embackment and were pouring a concrete pad to support the girders  while they made repairs.
