February 2024


In between the recent storms, we managed to get a window of opportunity to complete the temporary bridge installation supplied by Retro Bridge Limited at the Hixon WFD Scheme for Severn Trent. The bridge weighs 22.7 tonnes, spans 19m across the River Trent and required a 200 tonne crane to lift it into position. The bridge now provides access for us to commence construction of the new outfall in the River Trent & Microtunnel underneath the West Coast Mainline Railway and Trent & Mersey Canal. Further updates to follow……….great photos!
