Pillars to support the first floor and central columns to support the roof have been partially poured at Parkway Station for the
Railtrack Network Rail funded part of the Dart build. This is going to be a mighty long Dart station.
Looking out from under the Gateway Bridge the curve of the bridge can be seen as can the viaduct to Parkway Station in the background.
I have been told by my contact on the Dart project that the ski slope which isn’t structural but purely cosmetic cost £1.25m.
Careful inspection shows the blue lighting strip which is attached to one side of the blade. It won’t be an easy task fixing a lighting fault and there isn’t a backup strip. It appears to be lit 24/7 which I assume will prolong its life.
The bridge at night
At Central Station cladding is being attached to the side of the lower canopy. Using the roof of the station as a reference does anyone else think the multi story looks a bit wibbly wobbly?
