The very strict environmental protection regulations meant that a technically challenging bridge construction was necessary. PERI provided us with a perfect customised, economical and safe solution for the piers and arched construction along with the superstructure.

PERI solution

Complete solution with standardised modular systems:

  • VARIOKIT cantilever construction kit for bridge arches
  • VARIOKIT formwork carriage for T-beam superstructure
  • RCS rail climbing system for bridge piers and PERI UP for working platforms
  • stair access and protective roof construction
