HS2 begins foundation work for new bridge designed to carry HS2 trains under a section of the A38 near Lichfield
The Rykneld Street bridge is the last of three structures being built within a 455-metre-long cutting, with a collaborative approach adopted to keep traffic flowing through the complex engineering operation
Northants viaduct becomes second HS2 viaduct to have every major element manufactured off-site, cutting its carbon footprint and simplifying construction.
The twin structures near the town of Brackley use an innovative ‘double composite’ structure which allows a more efficient use of concrete and steel than a traditional approach, helping to cut carbon in construction.
