Breydon Bridge

Decorative blue diver line
Gt Yarmouth | Scaffolding | Completed 2021

Our scaffolding team love a challenge and this project on one of the main bridges in Great Yarmouth was no exception!

Working day and night to complete the job, we were tasked with erecting a hanging scaffold structure below the Breydon Bridge – a live road bridge which has provided a crossing over the River Yare since 1985.

As part of a £7.5m project to completely replace the bridge’s operating system, Anglian’s expert team designed and built a structure underneath the bridge to allow the engineers to work without it having to close.

“This was a highly complex project but one we absolutely loved. By delivering a safe platform from which these vital repairs could be undertaken, traffic could keep flowing on a busy route through Great Yarmouth.”

By creating multiple apertures in the platform, the scaffolding enabled heavy hydraulic plant to be loaded and unloaded on barges below.
