The combined group has a reputation that is unrivalled in the world of large bridges and heavy steel fabrication.
As an example, of the 7 greatest span bridges in the world, Cleveland Bridge Dorman Long Engineering has carried out the superstructures of 3 of them, and of bridges with main spans exceeding 1000m, Cleveland Bridge has been responsible for over 30% of their superstructures.
Whenever a major steel bridge or structure is planned, clients invariably consider Cleveland Bridge Dorman Long Engineering as their contractor of choice.
The organisation draws its strength and experience from a global structure which in turn focuses sharply on the local country of operations. Our localised structuring provides us with the necessary understanding of the cultures and customs to ensure sensitive results are achieved in all our dealings. This has been borne out by our international reputation gained over the last 125 years of operational experience.
