Contractors from Orion Marine are working on a project to replace 21 frayed anchor cables on the I-90 floating bridges.
The anchor cables help stabilize the bridge against wind and waves.
The cables are attached to large concrete anchors embedded on the lake floor and then securely attached inside pontoons.
This photo shows one of the anchor cables divers recently just replaced. Some of the steel strands are broken.
