Giant HS2 railway bridge moved into place near Kenilworth

A giant bridge to carry an existing railway line over the HS2 track has been moved into place.

It took five-and-a-half hours to slide the 5,600-tonne construction into position at a location near Kenilworth, Warwickshire.

Before the work could be carried out on Monday night, a 91m (299 ft) stretch of the Coventry to Leamington Spa line was dug up.

It was replaced once the bridge was installed.
