A tanker crossing the newly opened road bridge in Workington, Cumbria, UK.


This Thomas Armstrong lorry (a local haulage contractor) was the first to cross the new Workington bridge, from the north side over the River Derwent, during the official opening. The bridge links the two halves of Workington to motor traffic for the first time in 5 months, since the devastating November 2009 floods.
