So as we are in the third week of June so it is worth looking again at the start dates for various parts of the DART project.
End of March work on the running line was have meant to have started which is a 87 week project
Last month work should have started on Parkway station which is a 60 week project.
The viaduct ( 59 weeks)
Gateway bridge over the A1089 (53 weeks)
Building a temporary highway for the cut and cover tunnel.(47 weeks)
June should have seen work start on diverting taxiway Alpha ( 97 weeks)
So far nothing apart from a few red pegs and a few 1m deep random digs.
It seems a familiar story when it comes to the airports building projects. They all start late, initially the work is done just by one man and his dog. Then there is a mad rush and then the work is finished way behind schedule.
2021? unlikely.
