Work has begun on HS2’s carbon cutting Wendover Dean viaduct in Buckinghamshire, with contractors EKFB (a JV of Eiffage, Kier, Ferrovial and Bam Nuttall) sinking the first of the 53 concrete piles that will form the foundations.
EKFB JV (Eiffage, Kier, Ferrovial, Bam) is welcoming expressions of interest from contractors who would like to build the superstructure for a bat mitigation tunnel on the HS2 route in Buckinghamshire.
HS2 Ltd has announced that its 880m-long Thame Valley Viaduct will be entirely pre-fabricated before being assembled on site.
HS2 Ltd has revealed the first images of the longest of three “green tunnels” that will be built across Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire as part of the first phase of the high speed railways line between London and the Midlands.
National Highways has announced the companies shortlisted for the road building contracts either side of the Lower Thames Crossing.
Contractors, consultants and architects working on High Speed 2 (HS2) claim to have more than halved the amount of embedded carbon in one of the high speed rail project’s viaducts.
One of High Speed 2’s (HS2's) main contractors has told NCE that “there is still plenty to do” before main construction gets underway, even though the project has been given the official go-ahead.
