Having the gates be EXACTLY half as long as the road and then installing a mechanism on the ends to lock them together is one of the most GENIUS things I’ve ever seen! I’ve also never seen a hydraulic lift bridge before, so that’s pretty neat as well!
Great video, technically this is not a drawbridge in the true sense it is a vertical lift bridge. A drawbridge lifts up at a hinged angle like on a castle or Tower Bridge in London (Bascule Bridge).
Nice that's one way to let a boat with a tall roof go through without damage then the bridge goes back into place so vehicles and people can go about there day.
anytime a boat with a tall mast wants to pass. I live in Milwaukee and worked in the blue building (now called the Chase bank Plaza) Was called the Marine Bank Plaza in the 70's.

A magnificent piece of engineering

It's a table bridge, similar to a vertical lift bridge.
Cue the Thunderbirds intro: I was not expecting that! Interesting locking design of the barriers as well, never seen anything like it.

😮😮😮I remember very smartly that this bridge operated on July 9, 2022 around 12:30 p.m. when I was driving by the intersection on Water Street
I was actually at this draw bridge 2016 in July with a friend of mine who lived near me when we were on a Bus Travel
Is that white medieval round building the control tower?

Not as impressive as the Duluth Aerial Lift Bridge, but still cool.
