HS2 Viaduct Moves Over M6: A Major Rail Milestone

from Birmingham News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Engineers are set to slide a massive 107-meter, 1,250-tonne viaduct section over the M6 motorway near Chelmsley Wood, starting April 11th. The southbound slip road at junction four will close for two days, reopening after safety checks. This is a significant step towards completing the west deck, which will span 320 meters and carry high-speed trains to Birmingham. More viaduct installs are planned for later this year as HS2 continues its progress across the region. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
