Avonmouth Bridge Completed Repair Works

We’re proud to have successfully completed a complex programme of structural repairs to Avonmouth Bridge — delivered safely, on time, and under budget.

The works were carefully coordinated across day and night shifts, with welding and grinding undertaken during night closures to minimise disruption and vibration, while protective coating works progressed during the day using a specialist three-coat paint system. In close collaboration with the client, the team successfully delivered 66 individual welding repairs in line with road closures and traffic management requirements.

Working within confined space conditions inside the bridge’s box girders, our team utilised state-of-the-art welding, extraction, and air-fed RPE systems, supported by specialist rescue procedures and fully trained operatives. Every repair followed a rigorous quality assurance process, including NDT inspections before and after re-welding to confirm structural integrity.

Despite weather-related downtime, our dedicated team completed the works successfully; delivered with professionalism, strong communication, and effective site leadership throughout.
