A modern-style vertical lift bridge powered by command blocks. Four towers lift the central span of the bridge. The length of the lifted span is 31m. When raised, it allows for a clearance of 16m, up from 5m. There are 2 control rooms that allow it to be safely controlled from both sides (it can be raised from one side and lowered from the other). When the lever is switched, the light in the control room turns on, a barrier is raised across the road, the bridge is lifted, and then the light turns off indicating it is safe to pull the lever again to lower the bridge. The command blocks are hidden inside the towers.

Good build :) It reminds me a bridge in Bordeaux (France).

Thanks. The Pont Jacquest Chaban-Delmas, yes, I got some inspiration from that bridge when looking at modern examples of vertical lift bridges.

When I went to create an alternate schematic for the bridge rotated 90 degrees, I realized that the original schematic was broken because it cut off 4 command blocks that were below the water line. I've fixed that and linked the alternate schematic in the description. The world save download is unchanged. Sorry about that!
