The 1966 bridge carries a heavily trafficked road, that forms part of the A332 Royal Windsor Way Road, a key link between Windsor and the M4 motorway over the River Thames.

The project involved replacing the bridge’s holding down members, which had become necessary as a result of severe corrosion.

The businesses brought together their specialist knowledge, and collaborated seamlessly, to ensure the bridge remains an important transport link for local people, businesses and visitors to Windsor.
