Aerial & Panoramic views - Bridge damage at Black Brook/Cold River confluence
In this Google Maps aerial view, Black Brook can be seen entering the Cold River from the south, immediately upstream of the Route 2 bridge. It is believed that high flows from Black Brook pushed rocks and water well out into the Cold River and into the road and bridge on the north shore, causing the scour that damaged the bridge.
In this panoramic view, Black Brook joins the Cold River from the left. The Cold then crosses under the bridge , exiting to the right. To see the full panoramic view, open this link: http://www.gigapan.com/gigapans/144474 .
