Special Engineering Award – European Steel Bridge Awards 2016
WINNER - AUSTRIAN CONSULTING AWARD 2015
Due to the expansion of the harbour in Rotterdam (Europoort – Maasvlakte 2) the approx. 37 km of the feeder motorway A15 have to be repaired, widened and partly newly built. The core part of the route is the new construction of a lifting bridge, the so-called Botlekbrug.
The very attractive bridge construction project takes place under difficult conditions. The setting up of both the foundation and the piers in water as well as the limited space to the existing lifting bridge represent a special challenge for design and execution. The bridge is planned as road, railway, cycle and pedestrian bridge.
