EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the construction of the Second Severn Crossing bridge, located on the M4 Motorway in South Gloucestershire. The image showcases the innovative deck launch gantry, specially designed to install the bridge's deck units with precision and efficiency. The launch gantry stands tall against a backdrop of New Passage, Pilning, and Severn Beach, showcasing its impressive machinery that played a crucial role in this ambitious project. This photograph is part of the Breaking New Ground Project undertaken by Historic England Archive in collaboration with the John Laing Charitable Trust during 2019-20. Transporting us back to the 1990s when this engineering marvel was taking shape, it offers a glimpse into an era where progress and innovation were at their peak. The intricate details captured within this frame highlight not only the scale but also the complexity involved in constructing such an iconic structure. As we admire this remarkable feat of human ingenuity through A© Historic England Archive's lens, let us appreciate how bridges like these connect communities and facilitate seamless travel across vast distances. This image serves as a testament to human determination and skill while reminding us of our ability to overcome obstacles and forge new paths towards progress.
