HS2 Colne Valley Viaduct.
Completed in September 2024, the Colne Valley viaduct became the UK’s longest rail bridge. The 2.1-mile-long (3.4-km) gently curving structure, to the northwest of London, will carry HS2 trains travelling up to 200mph. The viaduct won the engineering category of the Fine Art Commission Trust’s Building Beauty award.
We moored our boat just north of here so I decided to take a walk and admire the striking views of this feat of engineering.
