Roughan & O’Donovan (ROD) was delighted to join H&H at the ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards on Saturday, 5 April, where we were honoured to receive the Platinum Award – Structural Systems for our work on Herring Bridge, Great Yarmouth.
The ACEC New York Engineering Excellence Awards celebrate engineering excellence, honouring projects worldwide that demonstrate innovation, creative problem-solving, and engineering’s unique ability to improve our world. Judged by a panel of industry, government, and academic experts, the awards recognise outstanding projects across a range of categories, including studies, research, consulting services, building/technology systems, and structural systems.
The £121m Herring Bridge in Great Yarmouth has been hailed as one of the region’s most significant infrastructure projects. ROD led the detailed design of the project behalf of BAM Farrans, a joint venture between BAM UK & Ireland and Farrans Construction. As ROD’s design partner, H&H provided global expertise in moveable bridges on the project. The ROD/H&H team is a highly sought after collaboration for its unmatched experience in designing competitive, highly constructible, kinetic structures.
