As we continue to make significant progress across the project, let’s look at what work will be carried out over the next couple of months.
- With abutment works complete we look forward to our final bridge beam lift on the project in April for the new Duckwood Bridge which will stretch over Weald Brook once craned into place using 1000t mobile crane.We’re currently building the RECo walls, concrete earth retaining walls with more than 1100 installed to date and another 1400 to install across the project.
- The RECo walls will form the new A12 eastbound exit slip and take traffic over the new Maylands Bridge to cross above the new loop road (M25 anticlockwise), up to the junction.
- Earthworks will recommence in April as we continue to shape the landscape for construction of the new M25 B-Track Entry Slip adjacent to the M25 and the new two-lane loop road that will link the M25 to the A12.
- Structural concrete works continue across the project at Alderwood Bridge and Mayland Bridge with the final concrete deck and diaphragm pours due to be complete in April and May respectively.
- Works will also start in April on the M25 clockwise between junctions 27 and 28, with the installation of the concrete foundations for the new overhead gantry.
