I can’t believe they didn’t take that s curve out of the rail & road bridge on the opposite side to which it was filmed, a perfect chance to duplicate the track as as well. We all know it’s a single line, but when removing an old bridge is the perfect time to duplicate the track, making a modern loop at the same time and removing some curves at the same time is forward thinking.

What was the reason for not doubling the rail and road capacity when they had the chance ? They could have straightened out the link and raised the deck to allow bigger boats to pass.

@rogerthomas368 4 жыл бұрын

They did double the road capacity, it was a single lane with lights controls beforehand. There is also no need for doubling the rail track, as the whole line is single track with passing points. Lastly, there is no major navigation path for larger boats. The river (Afon Dwyrdy) does not have any destinations upstream and downstream it is mudflats.

There is actually a pedestrian path to the right of the carriageway. With regards to cycling, I would agree with you if you would expect a high volume of cycling in this area, but there won't and will never be. This is such a remote place, and with low volumes of motor traffic, it is more reasonable to not implement cycling provisions and let them use the whole carriageway. It may not be perfect, but it's a good compromise considering how many cyclists use it.

The nearest connection from Penrhyndeudraeth over the bridge is over 8 km away, and we start to get to a point that cycling to Harlech is unappealing even given good infrastructure. Surely, rather than building a cycling bridge to nowhere, it would be better to build useable cycling infrastructure where it will be used.

This project was problematic from the start. The contractor did not carry out sufficient hydraulic modelling of the temporary state of the river during the works. For that reason the river altered its flow during the works and created a scouring current around the very large power transmission pylon which was situated in the mouth of the river a few hundred metres off the position of the bridge. The washout caused the pylon to be undermined and they had to stop work in order for the pylon to be emergency demolished and the power lines rerouted. It was a disaster narrowly averted and a big cost to the project. Our team bid for the works against hochtief but did not win as were too expensive........ however, we were aware of the dangers and included alot of hydraulic modelling in out bid...... hmmmmm.
