Our Carlisle depot team are currently supporting key client Nexus with works at Ponteland Road Bridge, helping to replace the bridge base plates.
Using one of our Liebherr A900s, the team has assisted with thimbling out the rails and carrying out a skim dig on either side of the structure to create the required clearance. Once the new base plates are installed, sleepers and ballast will be reinstated before the rails are thimbled back into position.
The project will conclude with a ballast top-up and final site brushing, ensuring the line is ready for service.
