SUNDAY BRIDGES--New Belgrade highway bridges

I HDR's this a bit to make an otherwise drab photo look a little better...notice all the traffic seems to be heading toward downtown rather than in the direction of the airport. I took this photo when I was returning home one afternoon (by bus) and got off above. Glad I wasn't heading downtown.

Notice the new helipad on the building on the left.

See other bridges at Louis La Vache's SUNDAY BRIDGES.

Traffic on the bridge is no different than in by hometown.

The traffic looks normal for Chicago!

I always feel a little smug when I am heading in the opposite direction to stalled traffic!

the effect is perfect and the scene sort of reminds me of the traffic I blogged about!
