Légende
A view looking east along the deck of the bridge during the construction of the Second Severn Crossing, showing cables supporting the deck of the bridge and work being carried out to join the deck units. The Second Severn Crossing took four years to build and was a joint civil engineering project between Laing Civil Engineering and the French company GTM. The work started in April 1992 and the opening ceremony later took place on 5th June 1996. The crossing is a cable-stayed bridge which stretches over 5000 metres across the River Severn connecting England and Wales, 3 miles downstream from the Severn Bridge which opened in 1966.
