under a <strong>NEC3 Option C contract<\/strong>, following a two stage <strong>Early Contractor Involvement <\/strong>(ECI) approach. The scope of the works include the design and construction of <strong>1.2km of new dual carriageway<\/strong>, a <strong>3.5m wide combined cycle \/ footway<\/strong> and improvements to <strong>two roundabouts<\/strong>, including diversions to existing highways. The alignment required a <strong>high-skew bridge<\/strong> to accommodate an existing dockland access road, two level-crossings and a <strong>railway line<\/strong> connecting CELSA\u2019s Castle Works and Rolling Mill. In addition, ground contamination, reliance on land acquisition and phasing of significant major underground utility diversions in an environmentally sensitive location all presented additional constraints within a tight programme.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/m-wysiwig>\n\n\n    <m-cyphers-basic>\n                        <ul slot=\"cyphers\">\n                                                <li>\n                                                                        <p class=\"number\">\n                                            2                                        <\/p>\n                                                                                <p class=\"post\">\n                                            Roundabouts upgraded                                        <\/p>\n                                                                    <\/li>\n                                                        <li>\n                                                                        <p class=\"pre\">\n                                            required                                        <\/p>\n                                                                                <p class=\"number\">\n                                            85%                                        <\/p>\n                                                                                <p class=\"post\">\n                                            of the project alignment                                         <\/p>\n                                                                    <\/li>\n                                                        <li>\n                                                                        <p class=\"number\">\n                                            70%                                        <\/p>\n                                                                                <p class=\"post\">\n                                            Road re-designed                                        <\/p>\n                                                                    <\/li>\n                                            <\/ul>\n                    <\/m-cyphers-basic>\n\n    \n\n\n<m-wysiwig class=\"wp-block-components-wysiwyg\"><div slot=\"maincontent\">\n<p>We have procured all imported slag material for the\npiling platforms and embankment construction and all reinforcement from the\nneighbouring CELSA works.
