You have to hand it to the Scots. When faced with a failing road bridge across the the Firth of Forth they began detailed technical discussions with potential contractor in 2010. In April 2011 they let the contract to a consortium of international contractors. The bridge opened in August 2017 (just over a year late!) The bridge is 1.7 kilometres long with a further 13.7 kilometres of new supporting roads. |
