Summary

Watch this: PennDOT’s pulling off a jaw-dropping engineering feat—sliding a 22-million-pound bridge 120 feet into place using 42 red jacks, Teflon, and a custom lubricant. Mammoet, the heavy-lifting pros behind Chernobyl’s dome, are in charge. The 24-hour operation could shave days off the 25-day project thanks to bonus incentives. Live cameras will let you follow the action remotely—because while you won’t see constant motion, the bridge lining up with Parkway East will be a sight to behold.
