Live video stream captures fall of infamous bridge.
Salvage teams will be working to remove the largely intact central span of the Chain of Rocks bridge from the canal below following a successful controlled blast earlier today.
This was the first stage in an ongoing demolition programme. The westbound span over the canal and the portions of both east and westbound bridges that are above ground will be removed in a similar fashion at a later date.
The Chain of Rocks bridge is infamous as the site of a double murder in 1991.
