Hercules Bridge – Strengthening works

Strengthening works are currently progressing to schedule on Hercules Bridge, with a temporary platform assembled to support the crew working under the structure.

Sections of the bridge are being prepared for the installation of the reinforcement system and damaged masonry has been removed in preparation for the repairs.

We are pleased to be able to carry these works from under the structure without impacting traffic flows on the carriageway.
