EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial print captures the magnificent Second Severn Crossing in all its glory. Spanning over 5000 meters across the River Severn, this cable-stayed bridge stands as a testament to exceptional civil engineering and collaboration between Laing Civil Engineering and GTM. The construction of this remarkable structure commenced in April 1992 and after four years of meticulous planning and hard work, it was officially opened on June 5th, 1996. The Second Severn Crossing serves as a vital link connecting England and Wales, situated just three miles downstream from the iconic Severn Bridge. From this unique vantage point, we are able to appreciate the sheer scale and grandeur of this architectural marvel. The intricate network of cables that supports the bridge is visible against the backdrop of serene blue waters flowing beneath it. As we gaze upon this photograph, we cannot help but be awestruck by both its beauty and significance. It represents not only a physical connection between two nations but also symbolizes progress, unity, and innovation. This image transports us back to the bustling construction sites of the 1990s when dreams were being turned into reality. It reminds us that great achievements require vision, dedication, and collaboration – qualities embodied by those who brought this extraordinary project to life.
