| Vinci to build the Kincardine bridge in Scotland Vinci Construction Grands Projets, working in a joint venture (50/50) with Morgan Est, has just won a design-build contract for the Kincardine bridge awarded by The Scottish Executive. This contract, worth over 145 million euros (100 million pounds) covers design and construction of a 1, 200m incrementally launched bridge over the Forth river estuary and 2-km access roads on either side of the bridge. The structure will provide a link between two major arteries to the north and south of the Forth river and will relieve congestion in the town of Kincardine, 40 km northwest of Edinburgh. Work will begin in June 2006 and will last 29 months. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
