Skanska have been employed by Network Rail (NR) to replace the existing SAS 13 bridge to increase lateral clearance below the structure to enable the construction of HS2's new depot access lines and access to the new HS2 depot via road. The existing bridge forms the rail intersection between the Stechford to Aston (SAS) line and the Birmingham to Derby Line (DBP3).

The new bridge will be a 92m single spanning structure. Skanska's appointment by Network Rail includes the design and demolition of the existing bridge and installation of the new structure.
