I had left a comment under an earlier video to say the topic has not been fully explored. Thank you! This video makes a lot more sense and the description has all the info.
what was the final trakmat made of? - I am gobsmacked how well it all went. Big thumbs up to the guys who planned and executed this incredible achievement.
Hi, there's some more details on the purpose behind the new bridge here: www.northlanarkshire.gov.uk/news/new-rail-bridge-signals-next-step-ravenscraig-regeneration

yeah right the state of chinese engineering is shocking just need to look at some of the videos on here to realise how much of a sham the construction is over in china
should have kept the steel plant open, with the thousands of jobs that it supported! The steel plant closed in 1984 and now you only just building bridge more than 30 years later! Where are the Jobs? Where are the answers to the the politicians promises after the steel works closed? Margret thatcher closed the steel works nearly 40 years ago and only now you building this bridge. whatever excuses you have will never make up for the lost jobs and destroyed lives in the community around Ravenscraig.
The new Levenmouth rail link is coming along very nicely. Keep up the good work in Scotland. 🏴
What an incredible feat of engineering.

i was sitting at the tesco extra up a bit from this wondering if that was a new bridge few weeks ago,now i know
What is the purpose of this bridge? From the video it looks as though one side is just a field surrounded by buildings!

Whilst great engineering this is a daily occurrence in China

Are you always so easily confused?!
