What we are doing
We need to demolish and rebuild the existing Saltley Viaduct because it
does not have enough room underneath for the new HS2 trains to pass
through. Before we begin the construction of the new Saltley Viaduct we need to install a temporary ramp to create a safe crossing point for
pedestrians and cyclists during our construction works.
What will we be doing?
To create the temporary pedestrian ramp, we will construct an earthwork ramp against the existing viaduct. We will begin constructing the temporary ramp in early December.
We will monitor and control the levels of noise, vibration and dust during our construction. Pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles will be able to continue to use Saltley Viaduct whilst we carry out these works.
