A35 Road and Bridge Essential Works (Redbridge Causeway)

Last update: January 2025

Latest updates

The main works have been completed with minor remedial works to be undertaken.

 

Scheme overview

The package of Redbridge Causeway concrete repairs comprised of refurbishment works to three bridges – Redbridge West, Redbridge East, and Redbridge Road. These bridges carry the eastbound carriageway of the A35 Redbridge Causeway over the River Test, the Redbridge to Romsey railway line and Test Lane / Old Redbridge Road, between Southampton and Totton. Some additional works were undertaken to the Redbridge Viaduct. 

The scheme included the following works:

  • Concrete repaired to the three eastbound carriageway bridges with the defects repaired (included cracking, spalling and delamination of concrete, and corrosion of the steel reinforcement);
  • The ICCP System installed which supports the Redbridge West Bridge (which inhibits further corrosion of the steel reinforcement by passing a low-level electric current through the concrete);
  • Replacement of the bridge deck which was waterproofed and resurfaced to both the carriageway and footway of all three eastbound carriageway bridges;
  • The south parapet upgraded to Redbridge Viaduct to improve safety for cyclists;
  • Concrete repaired to Piers 5 & 6 of Redbridge Viaduct.
