Adey Steel has completed the manufacture and supply of a new footbridge at Cymcynon in South Wales.
The Loughborough-based specialist steel infrastructure fabricator was appointed by the main contractor to replace a footbridge over the River Cynon that would also connect with an existing bridge leading to the Cwm Cynon Business and Industrial Park.
Adey Steel manufactured both the footbridge and a ramp from the road together with an anti-climb mesh roof over the bridge section. The 20-metre plus structure, which also spans the Aberdare branch of the Merthyr Line, part of the Core Valley Line, was installed over a two-day period in highly challenging weather conditions during the Christmas blockades.
Adey Steel is no stranger to supplying footbridges for major infrastructure projects. It supplied a 25-metre replacement bridge next to Oakengates Station in Shropshire and prior to that was involved in the supply of a replacement footbridge across the River Kent at Gooseholme in Kendal after the previous footbridge in the Cumbrian town had been severly damaged by Storm Desmond.
