- 2009
- Reference
- DCDL-0013319
- Description
The cartoon shows three bridges; the first is the Pont Romain de Vaison in France, built in the 1st century and still going strong, the second is London's Tower Bridge, finished in 1894 and still going strong and the third is the Auckland harbour Bridge that has a warranty that runs out in 20 years. This is a comment on the ephemeral nature of much modern building. Refers to the strengthening of the Auckland Harbour Bridge which has cost $45 million in maintenance work on the clip-on sections already and has had another $41 million approved to complete the work.
