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.
December is festive season and the same goes for Wagenborg Nedlift! No fewer than three new Liebherr cranes arrived at the yards in Groningen and Hengelo (in the Netherlands) and Hörstel (in Germany).
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.

There is nothing to see on the outside, but inside the composting plant at Twence it is bustling with activity. There, the construction of a brand-new composting line is in full swing. Due to the increasing supply of green waste, Twence is expanding its composting capacity significantly. The new plant will also replace the composting line that was destroyed by a fire in 2019.
