A 1974 view of the elegant concrete bridge over the Blue Nile (Abay) Gorge with a truck crossing over it. It is near the town of Goha Tsion in Ethiopia. A more recently completed Japanese-built bridge now sits next to this bridge. The older bridge is now only used by pedestrians, while the Japanese bridge carries Ethiopian National Highway 3 between Addis Ababa and Bahir Dar. The Blue Nile forms the border between Amhara and Oromia regions. This image is from an old amateur 35mm colour transparency – a vintage 1970s photograph.
