Westminster Bridge Examination

Up and Under Limited continued their association with bridges over the Thames yesterday, undertaking an examination of  bridge strike damage to Westminster Bridge.  This type of inncident is relatively common and varies in seriousness from paint scrapes to physical damage.

Our involvement with bridges over the Thames goes back to 1988 when we carried out a Principal Inspection of Battersea Bridge.  Later that year we inspected impact damage on the same bridge and thus started an involvement that extends to dozens of projects on 16 of the road bridges on the tidal section of the river.

There are 22 road bridges in total and we would very much like to complete the set.
