en.Wedoany.com Reported - On June 26, UK HS2 commenced the installation of the first batch of concrete beams at Birmingham Curzon Street station, marking the start of superstructure construction for the high-speed rail platform works. The Curzon Street station is planned to feature seven high-speed rail platforms, with the entire platform project utilizing over 556 concrete beams, each measuring up to approximately 34 meters in length and weighing 58 tons.

Previously, the high-speed rail platform project completed the installation of 2,011 foundation piles. The station's main structure will extend approximately 450 meters between Moor Street and Millennium Point. The new platforms will be supported by 188 concrete piers, forming a platform load-bearing structure of approximately 13,370 square meters, and will connect to the high-speed rail viaduct entering the station from the east. The project is led by Mace Dragados, with MPB involved in beam lifting.

The Curzon Street high-speed rail platform works will also integrate with Birmingham's city trams, buses, and existing railway lines. Following the installation of the first beams, subsequent construction will focus on additional beam lifting, platform structure assembly, and interface coordination with urban transport facilities. This high-speed rail platform project will serve as a key construction milestone for the UK HS2 project at the Birmingham hub.
