Keel Crossing [opened 18.10.25] - compendium thread


Probably by someone from Washington, Gateshead, Birtley, Whitley bay etc ………….that doesn’t have an airport either!

It’s funny when the regional councils own a share in the airport including Sunderland council

Usually the case.

And even funnier that we are still the largest shareholder (of the local councils) - we literally own more of it than Newcastle! 😂

@Inter the pub I expect the South side is currently been fully secured in position so the jacks can be installed on both sides ready for lifting the central section...any idea when its going to be ready for lifting?

GPS Avenger went straight back to Rotterdam after the South Section was installed. Im presuming it will be returning to tug the barge back to the construction site for the final lift and returning it home. Will have to keep an eye out for it.
 
Careful flying in the fog marra, the damp will get into the drone.
Aye, I was probably pushing my luck a little bit. Limited how long it was in the air and dried it off thoroughly afterwards. Somebody suggested putting it in a bag with silica gel sachets which is probably a good shout.
I was frustrated that I had something planned that I couldn't do because of the fog so tried something different. Hopefully I've got away with it.
