No. This one was assembled on site. The info with this vid says the site was closed to the public for general safety and COVID concerns. However they did provide 2 webcams to allow the public to watch.

Here is a different bridge being moved down the canal. They could not place it on a barge, because there would not be enough clearance under some of the bridges. Instead, they attached floats and partially submerged the bridge in order to move it.
