Kingston Bridge

Mercian Weldcraft together with Special Formwork tackling Major projects

Kingston Bridge - M8 - Glasgow

* 4 structures capable of moving on rails across the bridge.
* Built in crane rail for removal of existing parapit wall
* Cantilever platform to allow to access the underside of the bridge
* Capable of withstanding gale force winds in an exposed location

The structures could only occupy the hard shoulder and first lane of the motorway as the carriageway needed to stay open. Clearance needed to be allowed for a cement mixer to drive through the structure to replace the parapit wall.
