Really Big Bridges

Throughout history, bridges have been disassembled, pushed, and airlifted to new locations. But, sometimes, certain bridges are just too big to move. Or are they?

In this mind-boggling program from MEGA MOVERS, follow a team of experts who contend that one of the world’s longest and most famous suspension bridges, San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge, could be relocated. Explore the intricate planning and phenomenal machinery that would be needed to pull off this record-breaking move. Then, journey across the country to Rhode Island, where the team comes up against a massive challenge when they take on the job of hauling the world’s widest network-arched bridge 15 miles upriver and giving it a new home.

Records were made to be broken and, apparently, bridges were made to be moved. Now, join HISTORY™ for a fascinating look at the seemingly impossible engineering feats required to move REALLY BIG BRIDGES.
