Early finish for A14 bridge lifts

Early finish for A14 bridge lifts

Thanks to months of planning, the installation of two 1,000 tonne bridges over the A14 in Cambridgeshire over the weekend was completed a full 18 hours ahead of schedule. Dutch heavy lifting specialist Mammoet has installed a pair of 1,000-tonne bridges as part of a new improved Bar Hill junction. The A14 was closed at 9pm on Friday 14th September and was not scheduled to reopen until 6am Monday. However, smooth progress meant that Highways England was able to reopen it at noon on Sunday.
