Framed Print of Deck launch gantry JLP01_11_60006_03

Second Severn Crossing, M4 Motorway, New Passage, Pilning and Severn Beach, South Gloucestershire. A view of bridge deck units being installed during the construction of the Second Severn Crossing, showing a specially designed launch gantry overhead and two workers standing inside one of the deck units.
The Second Severn Crossing took four years to build and was a joint civil engineering project between Laing Civil Engineering and the French company GTM. The work started in April 1992 and the opening ceremony later took place on 5th June 1996. The crossing is a cable-stayed bridge which stretches over 5000 metres across the River Severn connecting England and Wales, 3 miles downstream from the Severn Bridge which opened in 1966.
