| Construction begins on FARRRS project in Doncaster, UK Construction has begun on the £56 million Finningley and Rossington Regeneration Route Scheme (FARRRS) in Doncaster, UK. Mott MacDonald is acting as project manager and providing technical support to Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council during construction. FARRRS will provide a new 4km highway from the M18 at junction 3 to Parrott's Corner on the A638 Bawtry Road. It will create links to Robin Hood Airport and new developments in Rossington, including Verdion's Inland Port and Harworth Estate's redevelopment of the former Rossington Colliery. Reclaimed material from the colliery spoil tips will be used to form raised embankments for most of the road. Additionally, several new bridges will be built to cross over the East Coast Main Line, the Brancliffe to Kirk Sandall railway line and various watercourses. The road is due to be fully operational by early 2016. write your comments about the article :: © 2014 Construction News :: home page |
