ちょうど17年前の今日のタウシュベツ。
今から振り返ると、とても「2,3年で崩れる」と言われるような様子ではなさそうです。現在のタウシュベツの写真も、後に見返すと同じ印象かもしれません。
Here’s a clear and engaging English translation for your caption:
Seventeen years ago today at the Taushubetsu Bridge.
Looking back now, it hardly seems like it was in a state to be declared 'about to collapse within two or three years.' Perhaps, years from now, current photos of this bridge will give the same
impression.
