The Mersey Gateway Crossing is due to open to traffic in the autumn of 2017. This will mark the second road crossing over the River Mersey estuary, in the North West of the UK. At its centre piece a spectacular new double span 1km long cable stayed bridge. The end of construction, and beginning of the operational phase of the 30 year DBFO contract, brings the opportunity to reflect on the challenges presented during delivery of the project infrastructure. |
