With the ever increasing traffic levels requiring refurbishment and upgrading of motorways, Demolition Services Ltd. was employed by Tarmac Construction on the M40 Widening Contract, Junctions 4 to 5.

Motorway overbridges and underpasses were demolished during a combination of night-time and weekend road closures. Daytime working was also undertaken with the benefit, where necessary, of motorway lane restrictions.


Reinforced concrete precast stressed concrete, and steel bridges were demolished in accordance with the Main Contractor’s programme requirements, to ensure minimum disruption of motorway traffic.
