Stop the Bridge Update

decanter Hugh Johnson has joined the fight against the Moselbrücke, the proposed bridge across the Mosel that Johnson is decrying as a “desecration.”

Here what he says…

Veteran wine writer Hugh Johnson has protested against the ‘folly and desecration’ of a new road bridge and motorway through some of the Mosel’s finest vineyards.

Work has started on the Rheinland-Pfalz government’s planned High Mosel Bridge, and a new road around the Bernkastel area. All appeals against the project have been rejected.

But opponents still hope the project can be stopped and held a so-called ‘Last Chance’ forum to bring the issue to the attention of the world.

Here’s an artist rendition of the proposed bridge.
