Wagenborg Nedlift has recently expanded its road plates range with a new composite variant. These ISOTRACK X road plates are produced from high-quality thermoplastic material, making them exceptionally strong, durable and lightweight. They can also be linked together with a handy connector pin system, thus creating a continuous, non-slip surface with a high load-bearing capacity. Moreover, these composite road plates perform better than conventional ones when it comes to pressure distribution.
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.
The railway bridges over the River Oder at Küstrin, on the German-Polish border, were built in 1926. In the past, these bridges connected Berlin with East and West Prussia as part of the so-called Ostbahn. This railway is still important as a detour and alternative route for the Berlin – Warsaw route. But the old railway bridges are at the end of their technical life and out of service since the end of 2020. Therefore, they are replaced by a brand new bridge that completely spans the Oder.
Close to the old train station in picturesque Assmannshausen, Germany, experts from Wagenborg Nedlift have installed a 150-tonne element of a pedestrian tunnel. They used two 500-tonne mobile cranes to skilfully place this prefab element.
The first of Wagenborg Nedlift’s two new Liebherr MK 73-3.1 tower cranes was delivered last Friday! This compact crane with a large reach is a beautiful addition to the fleet of Wagenborg Nedlift
For many years now, Wagenborg Nedlift has had the pleasure of carrying out a wide range of projects for the Genemuiden-based company Breman Machinery B.V., each project more unique than the last. This time round, Wagenborg was tasked with weighing and lifting what is known as an ABIT tool, and transporting it by land and water.
It is the responsibility of each and every one of us to meet the targets of the UN climate agreement that was ratified in Paris in 2016. We all have to do our part for the Paris Agreement. And Wagenborg is no exception. That’s why Wagenborg is working hard on the sustainability strategy that has been created, which contains concrete targets. As part of this endeavour, Wagenborg Nedlift has launched the ‘Road to Success’ pilot in collaboration with Route42.
Just last week we began transporting the first of five 380 kV transformers. In the early hours of this morning, the fifth and final transformer was given an official and ceremonial reception at the Vierverlaten high-frequency substation, west of Hoogkerk near Groningen.
In the town of Frechen, near Cologne, our Wagenborg specialists had the opportunity to use their knowledge and expertise to install various bridge components. The Terex-Demag CC2200 crawler crane was chosen for the project.
