This morning, by popular demand, we had a repeat of the hokey-kokey for our morning warm-up. Our local bridge building teammates seem very fond of it and have been singing it all day!
This morning, we finished launching and bending the swingers across the river. Thanks to Balfour Beatty Plant & Fleet for donating the winch! While this was going on, the local bridge building team started filling the right abutment with concrete. They have a great production process and were able to top it out by the end of the day.
After lunch, we set out and cut the final decking boards before we began installation. The local bridge team put the final touches to the right abutment, whilst also starting the stone curbing on the left abutment. We also painted the safety panels which we will use to complete the decking with the Rwandan flag, which was a great way of getting the local community involved and finding out more about the country’s history.
