How many of you can remember the Itchen Bridge in Southampton being constructed ?

There was a man in a small dingy, who rowed from one side of the Itchen River to the other, collecting bits and pieces that used to fall from the bridge when it was being built !!

Does anybody know how much the bridge toll was when it first opened in 1977?

Hopefully these brighter lights will make it safer for drivers and pedestrians crossing the bridge, particularly during the winter months.
