M53 Bidston Moss Viaduct Strengthening

摘要

Fully restoring a vital road link and undertaking extensive weiding inside confined spaces, with minimal disruption to traffic, were all safely achieved on this bridge project.The 730m long Bidston Moss Viaduct is a multi span box girder structure that connects the M53 to the River Mersey's Kingsway Tunnel, carrying 63,000 vehicles a day on this strategic route into Liverpool.A recently completed strengthening programme has now fully restored the structure, allowing load restrictions (HGVs were not allowed on the outside lanes) which had been imposed during the last ten years to be lifted.
