Engineers have spent Christmas Day installing a 500-tonne bridge at Newport railway station.

Pontypool-based Pro Steel Engineering has constructed the new pedestrian link between Devon Place and Queensway and Its managing director said staff worked in shifts throughout the day, delaying Christmas festivities to get the job done.

The new bridge spans all four platforms of Newport station, offering pedestrians an alternative to a subway that was only accessible by steps.
