Dew Piling successfully completes work at Port Salford

07 Aug 2013

Dew Piling have recently completed the initial access road sheet piling works associated with Port Salford which will be based on the banks of the Manchester Ship Canal, the only ship canal in the United Kingdom and the eighth longest in the world. The 12 week £250,000 contract was awarded by main contractor Hochtief/ Buckingham JV.

As part of the Western Gateway Infrastructure Scheme (WGIS), a new link road will be constructed in connection with the Port. The existing A57 road will be redirected closer to the Salford City Stadium, and a mile-long new dual carriageway link to Trafford Way and a new lift bridge over the Manchester Ship Canal will be constructed to the east of the existing M60 bridge.
