The lock was built in 1905 with a fixed bridge. In 2020-2021, a reconstruction took place, during which the stone bridge was replaced by a unique steel structure lined with original stones. Thanks to the lifting mechanism, the underpass height increased from 4.5 to 7 meters.
Visit Instructions:
1) After you've found a vertical lift bridge, go visit it, get the coordinates, a picture or two of it, and if it is in use or not still as a lift bridge.
Then log it and post your pictures! At least one of the photos must be of you and your GPS there with the bridge in the background. (No old vacation shots or photos off the internet!)
2) Include the coordinates, city/county/state/country and the name of the bridge (if it has one).
3) Include any interesting information about the structure
