For dismantling, the bridge superstructure is first divided into segments using sawing technology. The bridge sections are then lifted out safely and precisely using a pneumatic and crawler crane.
In order to ensure safety during the work, column supports are being installed in advance to secure the pendulum columns, additional position stabilizers for the superstructure and support towers.
The existing prestressed concrete bridge with a total length of 120 meters will be dismantled mainly during rail closure breaks and in 24-hour operation in order to keep disruptions to rail traffic to a minimum. A particular challenge here is the limited movement space of the large cranes due to the adjacent railroad lines.
