Consultation has concluded
Welcome to the registration page for the Didcot Science Bridge online information session.
VolkerFitzpatrick has been appointed by Oxfordshire County Council as the principal contractor to deliver the Didcot Science Bridge, as part of the wider Didcot and surrounding areas major infrastructure scheme (HIF1). The scheme aims to:
Reduce congestion and improve air quality in local villages and parishes.
Improve journey times across the area.
Enhance pedestrian and cycling connections.
Enable additional job creation at new and existing employment sites and support planned housing growth across South Oxfordshire.
The team has made great progress with the enabling works, including site clearance, establishment of site compounds and offices and ongoing archaeology investigations and statutory utility diversions. As we progress towards main construction on the Didcot Science Bridge, the focus of activities will now include bulk earthworks, the installation of highways drainage and support structures for the main bridge over the railway line.
