In the period from December 2018 to May 2019, Anton Bouw & Betontechniek constructed a new road bridge in the province of Friesland. The adjacent existing slow traffic bridge has been boosted by Anton Bouw & Betontechniek in cooperation with Anton Industrial Services. And adapted. For example, a new grazing edge and handrail have been installed.
Remedial measures included in the specifications
Years of extraction of gas and salt in the rural area of Franekeradeel-Harlingen has negatively affected the area’s water management, resulting in soil subsidence. Due to this subsidence, the minimum vertical clearance of 2.5 meters is no longer sufficient. This made the province decide to implement the remedial measures in collaboration and consultation with Anton Bouw & Betontechniek, among others. These remedial measures are included in the specifications and form the project: Area development Franekeradeel-Harlingen. At the location of the old bridge, a completely new one has been built over the Doanjumer Feart and the adjacent slow traffic bridge has been jacked up. Partly thanks to this area development, the area remains liveable.
