- 🙌 We've completed our four-year £30m restoration of Barmouth Viaduct.
The 156-year-old, grade II* listed bridge is back to its former glory and protected for generations to come:

A fantastic achievement in a difficult place to work, and a amazing engineering solution.
An incredible feat of engineering. Its been a pleasure to host many of the Griffiths Construction team that have worked on this bridge over the past 4 years. This bridge is part of our landscape and its great to see its now been given a long term future.
Really good to see that viaduct renovated
Obviously a major engineering achievement, & congratulations to the design and construction teams. BUT the video really could do with a few subtitles in places, I assume the original viaduct was also a swing bridge as I think I saw the turning bearing being removed. Not every viewer is a railway engineer
This is British engineering at its best ~ absolutely amazing. If I had the money I’d buy everyone concerned a pint 🍺 or two 🍻
A spectacular engineering achievement!
Congrats lads great job well done
This is a marvellous piece of engineering. It really deserves more than 3.6mins (incl titles). I'm hoping that a proper documentary on the whole restoration will be forthcoming, but reluctantly knowing that it is probably not going to happen. Come on Network Rail, give us rail enthusiasts a decent video.
An impressive piece of engineering
Wow, amazing bit of in-situ engineering - almost went to Barmouth over the summer from Machynlleth but took the shorter journey to Aber instead - walking over that section is always fascinating albeit haven’t been for over a decade!
And to think Torpedo Beetle nearly sounded the death knell for that bridge (and the rail line) not so long back.
Many thanks - I really enjoy these amazing engineering processes!
Magnifique reportage. J'admire nos collègues britanniques pour leur prouesse technique et la beauté de leur film sur les projets. Merci de nous les faire partager.
Must be experts in rusty old bolt removal. Good job I wasn't there while this was going on. It's a long way around by foot.
Very nice work Network Rail. 🧡
Excellent achievement
Marvellous! 👍👍
Bloody well done all concerned for a grand job well completed
I'm sure, given the opportunity, any enterprising entrepreneur would have bought some of the steel from the sections of the Bridge that were cut up and produced souvenirs for rail enthusiasts, Arthur Daley would have!
Brilliant time lapse on a major upgrade but a little disappointed not to see the bridge swing open
