The central section was built in two sections, meaning preparatory, construction, and backfilling works could happen at different points at the same time. The two segments met this week and were fully connected on Monday (5 October).<\/p>\n<p>HS2 Ltd\u2019s project manager, Umesh Gorasia, said: \u201cIt\u2019s great to see the two halves of the tunnel linked up for the first time. Once complete, the green tunnel will dramatically reduce disruption from passing trains and blend the railway into the countryside.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s still some way to go, but we\u2019re making good progress and I\u2019d like to thank the team for all their hard work.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Viaducts and tunnels are making great progress on the line<\/h3>\n<p>Earlier this month, the HS2 Westbury Viaduct was completed, spanning 320 metres near Brackley and ready to carry HS2 trains across the River Great Ouse floodplain.<\/p>\n<p>The viaduct was built using a \u2018double composite\u2019 approach, using lower-carbon concrete and steel to create a box beam with concrete above and below steel beams.<\/p>\n<p>The steel beams were assembled on the north abutment before being slid into place between March and October 2024, using special non-stick coated pads. The concrete was then cast using a travelling formwork to make 42-metre-ling sections. The formwork would be pulled forward after a section is cast to allow the next one to be cast.<\/p>\n<p>HS2&#8217;s senior project manager, Paul Cooper said: \u201cIt\u2019s been amazing to watch Westbury viaduct come together over the last few years and I\u2019d like to thank everyone involved in getting this incredible structure over the finishing line.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis section of the railway is now really starting to come together, and with the viaduct complete, our focus will turn to completing the earthworks and other nearby structures.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a
