The GE 19 Bridge Push is due to take place over the next Bank
Holiday Weekend. Is it going to appear on webcam?

Are there any positions from
which the bridge can easily be observed/photographed whilst it is
being pushed into position?

Allen Gardens, which is the little park by the old Shoreditch
station. See this map:

(the bridge has been assembled in the area marked "embankment ramp")


Thanks for the excellent map. I went there on Thursday (1st May)
and took some photos which are at http://rjnews.fotopic.net in
the collection "ELLX Shoreditch". I plan to take more photos
tomorrow (though not during the 4 a.m. session!).


They have a couple of Webcams running at:

Hopefully they won't ne overwhelmed like the SHoreditch ones were a
few weeks ago...


When is the push starting? No sign of movement on the webcams this
morning.
