Color edit

It used to be black. When was it repainted green? (I must say it looks a lot better in the new paint scheme.) 66.234.220.195 (talk) 15:05, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

That was part of the refurbishing done in 1999 and 2000. —EncMstr 17:35, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Actually, it has not been black since 1964, and was then yellow ochre until 1999, but EncMstr is correct that 1999 is when it was repainted green. However, I note that this is a 5-year-old discussion, and information on those two color changes was already added to the article (by me) in 2009. SJ Morg (talk) 10:04, 4 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Steel or iron edit

The gratings are steel, but the article does not say if the basic structure is steel or iron. FatBear1 (talk) 01:02, 13 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

It is steel, and I have added that to the article. Very few if any bridges were still being made of wrought iron at the time this bridge was built. SJ Morg (talk) 10:05, 22 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
