15 giant bridge beams lifted into place at HS2 station

HS2’s Interchange Station in Solihull is taking shape after a 20-strong team lifted 15 huge bridge beams into position.
The beams were hoisted into place onto existing abutments and piers using a 650-tonne crane to form the ‘building blocks’ of a road bridge that will take vehicles over the high-speed railway and onto the station car parks.The beams weigh a collective total of 565 tonnes and are the foundation of the two-lane bridge, which will stretch 63.5 metres once finished
