Then, from 16-23 August, a skidding system utilising a jacking push\/pull mechanism will help the SPMTs move the bridge into place.<\/p>\n<p>This technique is a first for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hs2.org.uk\/about-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BBV on HS2<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To further avoid traffic disruption as much as possible, these operations will take place at night (10 pm to 6 am), moving the bridge by roughly 12 metres every night. During these hours, the section of Lawley Middleway between Garrison Circus to Curzon Circus will be closed from 15-25 August.<\/p>\n<p>HS2\u2019s head of delivery for the Curzon approaches, Greg Sugden, said: \u201cThe team have worked hard to get us ready for yet another significant feat of engineering, marking a further step forward in the construction of the high-speed railway into Birmingham.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Curzon Approaches is a complex and challenging section, with the railway being carefully designed and constructed through an urban landscape and network of roads, railways and canals.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Big milestones for HS2<\/h3>\n<p>At the end of June, HS2 announced that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/projects\/video-8-4-mile-hs2-tunnel-breaks-through-beneath-london\/152627\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">excavation phase of the Northolt Tunnel<\/a> in London had been completed.<\/p>\n<p>The tunnel is 35m below ground, and is the second-longest tunnel in the whole route at 8.4 miles in length.<\/p>\n<p>The tunnel was dug at a rate of roughly 38 metres per day, using four tunnel-boring machines simultaneously placing concrete segments as they progressed. The concrete segments weigh 7 tonnes each.<\/p>\n<p>4,160,000 tonnes of clay were excavated and removed to be used elsewhere on the British rail network. 14,300 concrete tunnel rings were made, using 94,233 segments.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of announcement, Alan Morris, construction delivery director for HS2 Ltd, said: \u201cCompleting the excavation of this 8.4-mile-long tunnel on HS2 is a real achievement and one the team should be immensely proud of.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re building HS2 for the future, to increase capacity on our rail network and improve journeys for millions of rail users.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe construction of HS2 is already bringing benefits, with \u00a320bn economic benefit already being delivered at either end of the line.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A 112m long, 1,631 tonne steel HS2 bridge is ready to be positioned in Birmingham, using &#8216;first time&#8217;
