"Forth Road Bridge to reopen on Wednesday"

Well good news and an early Christmas present for many commuters and business owners.

Forth Road Bridge to reopen on Wednesday - BBC News

Might be a used arc welder now on sale on Gumtree !!

Job well done to the man who welded up the crack and got the show on the road ---so to speak. He deserves a bevvie.

Merry Christmas to all from a temporary Fife dweller, in sunny Leven by the sea.

I'll be crossing it later this morning , if you see me back on the forum later you will know the bridge didn't collapse under the weight of my car loaded with me and Christmas pressies for the extended family !

Good luck Derek!!

Sitting in a traffic jam on that bridge is worrying enough without knowing its actually falling apart. Kudos to the guys that 'fixed' it ahead of schedule though!
