On 12 January 2024, Wagenborg Nedlift, via Blue Sky Equipment BV (importer), reached an agreement with China's XCMG for the delivery of the world's first hybrid 60-tonne mobile telescopic crane.
Near Berlin, Wagenborg Nedlift's bridge team carried out a special operation. The Fahlenberg Bridge was moved 100 metres via a sophisticated jacking and barging operation.
In Berlin, a large-scale renewal project of the Dresdner Bahn, one of Berlin's main rail links, is in progress. Wagenborg Nedlift's bridge team was there!
Last week, it was announced that Wagenborg again invests in the expansion of jacking technology. A unique jack-up system for ultra-heavy duty jacking projects was delivered to the Hengelo site.
Recently, a new bridge has been installed over the Emscher to the Emscherinsel in Essen-Karnap (Germany). And not just any bridge: besides being a bicycle and pedestrian bridge, it is also a pipe bridge. A handy combi-bridge! Wagenborg Nedlift's bridge specialists came on site for the installation.
In Germany, they are known as 'Expressbrücke': bridges that can be put in place or exchanged within a short time by means of an accelerated construction method or with pre-assembled bridge sections. A godsend, because it shortens traffic jams and disruption as much as possible. This is good news for the business community and residents of a country where some 4,000 (!) bridges will need to be replaced in the next ten years.
The largest and busiest motorway intersection in the North Netherlands is the Julianaplein in the city of Groningen. Two motorways, the A7 and A28, intersect here currently controlled by traffic lights. This situation leads to considerable congestion around the city. For this reason, Julianaplein is being completely converted into a new grade-separated traffic interchange.
The "Ludwig-Volk-Steg" footbridge, built in 1967, connects the communities of Margetshöchheim and Veitshöchheim, near Würzburg. Two of the bridge's piers are located in the navigation channel of the Main River, which can lead to unsafe situations. With this, a new suspension bridge is under construction. With barrier-free ramps and a width of three metres, this suspension bridge allows cyclists and pedestrians to cross the Main River safely, which also allowing for safe passage for shipping traffic.
