Project Description

The scheme was to provide an improved A50 carriage way, which included JOS constructing a new bridge over the A50 in Uttoxeter.

The scope of works was to carry out construction of two reinforced concrete abutments situated North and South of the A50 with retaining walls on either side enabling the prefabricated steel bridge to be positioned in placed.

The Following works were to construct the RC Deck including Parapet, Apron slab and Wing Walls.
