rfmcdonaldThe CBC News article "Confederation Bridge fabrication yard removal work could be done by summer" made me sad.
I saw the yard in my August 2014 visit, and loved it. I did not get a chance to explore very deeply, unfortunately, but what I saw did evoke Stonehenge in the gloom of the overcast afternoon, on the especially tidal south shore of the Island. Why not keep them up?
The P.E.I. government has issued tenders to remove above-ground concrete column structures at a Borden-Carleton fabrication yard that was used during the building of the Confederation Bridge.
The site is often referred to as the Stonehenge of P.E.I., due to the concrete pillars that dot its 45 hectares. The area is one of the first sites people see when they come to P.E.I. over the Confederation Bridge.
It has been unused since the bridge opened in 1997.
The province hopes to have the removal work completed by the summer.
