The demolition of the Carola Bridge is expected to cost the state capital of Dresden 32 million euros. This is according to an answer from the city administration to a question from the Left Party parliamentary group in the city council.
This means that the city's cost estimate is significantly higher than the last figures quoted. At the end of July, the project manager for the demolition, Grit Ernst from the road and civil engineering office of the state capital, had estimated the demolition costs at 18 million euros.
