Specialist contractor Eric Wright Civil Engineering is replacing the current 95-year-old bridge on behalf of Leicestershire County Council.
The £19.5m scheme will see the existing 80m (262ft) bridge which spans the River Soar demolished.
Cllr Charles Whitford, county council lead member for highway and transport, said: "This is a great opportunity to have a chat with the experts and find out more about this technically challenging project.”
