Mersey Gateway Crossing: Astmoor Approach Viaduct


A new six-lane toll bridge crosses the Mersey River and Manchester Shipping Canal, with the Astmoor Approach Viaduct forming part of the 2km crossing. Main contractor Mersey Link approached RMD Kwikform to provide a solution to support the 115-tonne pre-cast concrete beams. However, with tight timescales on site where the main contractor needed to build a 40-metre span each week, RMD Kwikform only had seven days from initial contact to producing the design and starting to deliver equipment to site.
