(Photograph taken on August 29, 2010 - © Cameron Bevers) Right - Facing south along Hwy 21 between Port Elgin and Tiverton. The windmills in the background are part of a large wind farm that was established recently along the shores of Lake Huron to generate electricity. This is one of many new wind farms that have sprung up in Ontario in recent years. While there are few who would refute the fact that our society needs to explore more sustainable energy sources, the dramatic impact that these wind farms have on Ontario's pastoral landscapes cannot be overlooked.

Department of Highways in Southern Ontario. Arched deck truss bridges are rather scarce on Ontario's highways.

Left - Old piers and overgrown abutments mark the site of the original Southampton Bridge. The old bridge is located at the end of Carlisle Street,
about 3 km northeast of Downtown Southampton. Carlisle Street once formed a cut-off route for Hwy 21 that bypassed Southampton altogether. The bridge was
never reopened after being closed in the 1940s. Since that time, all Hwy 21 traffic has passed through Downtown Southampton. (Photograph taken on June 19, 2005 - © Cameron Bevers) Right - The old Southampton Bridge on the Hwy 21 cut-off was badly damaged by a flood in 1947, and was later demolished.
