In the town of Melton Mowbray, a joint venture is taking place at the FTB facility. This venture, comprised of in- industry giants Freyssinet, Tierra Armada, and Roger Bullivant, has set its sights on producing prestressed bridge beams for Balfour Beatty VINCI’s (BBV) section of the HS2 line, England’s zero-carbon high-speed railway. HS2, the groundbreaking high-speed rail project, is currently in development to connect London to the North-West of Britain. Its trains will seamlessly link major cities in Scotland with Manchester, Birmingham, and London. This undertaking stands as the largest infrastructure project in Europe. The upcoming high-speed rail line is designed to span from the North West to the South East, making stops at key cities such as Manchester, Birmingham, and London, while extending its reach to Scotland and other destinations via the existing rail network. Anticipated to commence operations between 2029 and 2033 upon the completion of Phase One, HS2 services will progressively expand as additional sections of the network are developed.
