Kier Highways has installed three large cantilever gantries over nine nights on the M6 while the motorway remained open.
The three gantries weighing 24 tonnes and 18m in width now span the carriageway on the M6 between junction 14 (Stafford) and junction 15 (Stoke).
They were installed with a contraflow in operation, with one lane of traffic travelling north on the southbound side and traffic running south in three narrow lanes.
A team of 57 people worked each of the nine nights to install the gantries along with six smaller MS4 gantries and 28 lighting columns.
