New and interesting GA. The hook is concise, unique and cited in the article, but currently only mentioned in the lead section. Third DYK, so QPQ is not needed. The image is free and looks good. Write something about it being the first tilt bridge in the article body as well and I'll approve the nomination. Ffranc (talk) 13:42, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
Hi @Ffranc:, thank you for reviewing this. I've added a reference to it being the world's first tilting bridge in the Conception section of the article. Unexpectedlydian (talk) 22:19, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
