Contractors AmcoGiffen has installed the main span for the footbridge between the two platforms at Llanelli station.

The process of lifting and placing the span took two hours, and it followed recent work to install the landings and stairs on both platforms.

The next milestone at Llanelli station will see the lift shafts installed in the coming weeks as the project gathers pace.
