Watch moment Anfield truss lift begins as £80m stadium project takes next step

Liverpool's £80m Anfield Road End expansion project has edged closer to completion as the roof truss is being lifted into position on top of the current structure.

Work to lift the truss, which weighs a staggering 300 tonnes, is well underway after the initial scheduled date of Saturday was scrapped due to high-level winds.

Footage sent to the ECHO by 'Mister Drone UK' shows part sof the truss being hoisted into the air by two 600-tonne cranes and then carefully aligned onto multiple 60-tonne pillars, which will keep the truss in place as the remaining stages of the project are completed.
