Civil Engineering in the West Midlands
The West Midlands region is home to a number of large civil engineering firms: Arup, Carrillion and Morgan Sindall. The West Midlands is home to a number of innovative and historical structures, such the Perry Bridge (also called the Zig-Zag Bridge) which was built in 1711, the Galton Bridge which, when it was built in 1829, was the highest single span bridge in the world, and Iron Bridge, which was completed in 1779 and was the first cast iron arch bridge in the world. The West Midlands has a strong reputation for civil engineering, with many famous historical engineers such as James Brindley and Thomas Telford having strong associations with the region. A substantial series of canals were constructed throughout the West Midlands to support its heavy industrial nature and to grant easy access to other areas of the country.
The West Midlands is as varied as it is beautiful, with bustling and vibrant cities sitting alongside idyllic countryside spots. The geographical diversity attracts hundreds of thousands of tourists every year and there are a multitude of activities that take advantage of it. There’s always something to do in the West Midlands!
