Wool Bridge, made famous by Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the d’Urbervilles, collapsed last year. Erosion of its foundations caused the arch and wall to slip into the river requiring action to make this well used crossing safe. Reconstruction has significantly enhanced the bridge structurally, using modern materials which have been clad in stone recovered from the watercourse and new stone sourced from the same bed used 500 years ago.

This is a major £11million scheme close to the M32 and M4/M5 interchange, combining essential maintenance and innovative enhancements. The structure was understrength, in an ever-deteriorating condition with a foot-way unfit for purpose. The viaduct is part of Bristol’s strategic network carrying daily over 55,000 vehicles and 500 cyclists. The scheme has removed the need for major maintenance and improvement works in future
This scheme reduces flood risk to over 650 properties and was a priority scheme in the Exe Estuary Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Strategy. Completed within five years of strategy, it met heritage and planning requirements. Public engagement resulted in pedestrian and road safety improvements, habitat niches, and flood gate, wall and railing finishes reflecting local character, in addition to the scheme’s flood risk benefits.
Cowley Bridge Junction flooded when the culverts underneath the diverging ‘V’ of the Taunton-Exeter main line and the Devon and Cornwall line become overwhelmed with water. This complex project provided a new flood relief culvert to provide additional capacity under the existing railway. It successfully improved the flood resilience in and around the junction, providing significant protection for the railway, travellers and the surrounding communities.
The Heatsink is an essential part of Hinkley point C and is key to the successful completion and operation of the plant. It consists of the fore bay intake tunnel, the pump house and the outfall shaft and the nature of the top down excavation and slope support process presented complex logistical challenges. The Heatsink is an essential part of Hinkley point C which is securing the next generation of power for the region.
This Network Rail flagship projects unlocked the potential of the wider network to deliver the new Intercity Express Programme. The project has been delivered in a congested and constrained rail corridor, surrounded by numerous urban neighbours and a multitude of stakeholders. A significant bottleneck in Bristol’s national rail network was removed by increasing the number of tracks from two to four.
This project involved the replacement of a 30-year old footbridge linking two areas of the National Trust’s Trelissick Garden. The bridge is unusual because there are few privately owned footbridges spanning roads in the UK that do not meet minimum height requirements and are constructed from hardwood timber. The new bridge was fabricated and then transported to Trelissick as individual pieces before being assembled on site.
