Over the weekend, National Highways implemented crucial improvements to the M25, requiring its first full closure since completion in 1986. AtkinsRéalis, in collaboration with National Highways, Balfour Beatty plc and supply chain partners, ensured the success of this milestone through a combination of high-quality design and construction planning. The closure facilitated the demolition of the Clearmount bridleway bridge and the installation of the UK's heaviest motorway gantry. Weighing 128 tonnes and spanning 63 metres (equivalent to the length of six double-decker buses), the gantry is a testament to innovative engineering achieved by an innovative, automated design tool. Additional closures are planned as this project continues, but the public has shown patience and understanding. #M25 #M25Improvements #infrastructure #highways

Hi Adam, why is a gantry preferrable to a bridalway bridge?
