#HS2 engineers have completed the first major phase of work to launch the Duddeston Junction Viaduct over six railway lines in #Birmingham. This month the team launched the first 170 metres of the 700-metre structure over two live freight lines. It's the longest viaduct on the Curzon Approaches by over 400 metres, with the crossing of all six railway lines expected to conclude next summer.

Another weekend of progress on the M42, as #HS2 engineers continued work to carry the railway over the motorway in the West Midlands. All roof beams over the southbound carriageway of the twin box near #Solihull were installed and further progress was made on both viaducts at Water Orton. This weekend, work continues on the M6 South Viaduct in Solihull where closures will be in place between J4 and J4a as the team slides the west deck across the motorway.
