Since then, our collaboration has gone from strength to strength. We've successfully bid an delivered a number of key projects for Crossrail and we have recently been awarded part of Highways England Smart Motorways Programme, starting with an 18km stretch of the M5 (J4a to 6). Subject to statutory approval, we will then work on the M6 (J2 to 4) and the M4 (J3 to 12). Balfour Beatty VINCI is a powerhouse for critical infrastructure.

This latest #HS2 video shows how we recently moved the final section of a viaduct into place over the M42/M6 link roads in North Warwickshire. It's well worth a watch 👀 🎥 🛣
Over the weekend, our engineers completed the final operation to move two railway viaducts into place over the M42/M6 link roads in North Warwickshire 🎉, making them the first viaduct structures to be built at Delta Junction ✅. The ‘push’ to move the 158-metre-long ‘West Link Viaduct’ into its final position over both westbound and eastbound motorway link roads took a total of 11 hours over the weekend. The parallel ‘East Link Viaduct’ was moved into place using an identical two-stage process during two weekend operations in February and April this year. This viaduct is currently being prepared to be brought into use as an internal haul road by the end of December, to move material from Bromford Tunnel to the Delta Junction, taking thousands of lorries off the local road network.

Our tunnel boring machine 'Mary Ann' has reached the halfway point on her journey towards Washwood Heath in #Birmingham 🎉 👀 Check out this #HS2 video to get a sneak peek inside the tunnel and to see what we're building on the other side when it breaks through in early 2025...
The Bromford Tunnel hits the halfway point! 🤩 The first of two giant tunnelling machines 'Mary Ann' has excavated and built 1.75 miles of the 3.5-mile-long tunnel between Water Orton and Washwood Heath in Birmingham. In preparation for the arrival of the TBMs at Washwood Heath, a huge earthworks operation has been completed to build the tunnel’s west portal, which at 22 metres below ground is the deepest of the four tunnel portals on the Midlands section of the HS2 route. HS2 trains will emerge from the Bromford Tunnel and travel below ground level, before raising up onto a series of viaducts through Birmingham’s industrial heartland and into Curzon Street Station.

Another spectacular #HS2 bridge delivered by #BBV 🎉 Here's what Shamus Banaghan, our senior project manager, had to say... 📣 “This bridge is a key structure that will allow HS2 trains to pass underneath the A452 near Balsall Common. Standing almost 14 metres high and 185 metres in length, the scale of this achievement is clear to see." HS2 (High Speed Two) Ltd Galldris Group
We have successfully completed a 185-metre bridge 🎉🤩. The colossal structure is 185 metres in length, 19.5 metres in width and 13.9 metres in height – constructed using 7,200 cubic metres of concrete and 1,800 tonnes of steel. A team of 50 people based on-site celebrated the final installations on the self-contained ‘box’ bridge structure following an 18-month build process. This involved successfully installing 12 parapets, which will act as safety barriers when traffic eventually passes over the bridge. The bridge has been designed to take HS2 under the A452 Kenilworth Road, located near Balsall Common, West Midlands.

Moving a 1,600 tonne bridge over an existing railway in #Birmingham - now that's a video definitely worth watching 👀 🎥 🍿 Find out more about how we manoeuvred this huge bridge into position in just five hours last weekend 👇
In a five-hour operation, the new 1,600 tonne Aston Church Road bridge was moved over existing railway tracks in Birmingham. The 84 metre long and 21 metre wide bridge, was moved over the existing Birmingham to Derby railway line and will also sit above the new HS2 tracks as high speed trains travel in and out of Birmingham. Starting at 10pm on Saturday 10 August, it took five hours for the team to move the bridge into place, reaching its final position at 3am on Sunday morning. The operation was delivered by our main works contractor in the Midlands, Balfour Beatty VINCI and their specialist bridge move contractor Mammoet, during a Network Rail blockade. The railway was handed back to Network Rail five hours earlier than planned 🎉👏. Learn more: https://gloo.to/Febc #Birmingham #Bridge #HS2
