  • Building Bridges

    Bridges form a large part of the UK’s road and rail network with over 72,000 of them across the country. And as contractors begin work on the first phase of HS2 between London and Birmingham, that number is only set to increase. Fortunately, bridges are something we know about at CCL. Our post-tensioning technology has been used to construct new bridges all over the world. We have also engineered and installed bridge bearings for many high-profile projects. Whether it’s building new bridges or maintaining and repairing existing ones, CCL has it covered.
