Client: Bord na Mona
Project: N5 Scramoge to Cloonmore, Co Roscommon
This project was commissioned by the rail transport division of Bord na Mona. It involved the construction of a bridge over a railway line that was in constant use. One of the key challenges that we faced was how to configure our design in such a way as to minimise the undermining of the track. We completed the installation of this bridge in two days using precast wing walls and an Opti Cadre portal frame.

This involved long-term restrictions on traffic on the track and two full possessions.
