Work on the dilapidated agricultural bridge south of Leipzig is progressing. From this Friday, all traffic will be shifted to the eastern bridge span, as announced by the State Office for Road Construction and Transport.
A special support structure was erected for the new route. Within a short space of time, 408 supports were installed to additionally bear the load of the bridge from below and thus ensure its stability. The bridge was gradually placed on the new supports. According to earlier information, the total cost of this preliminary work amounted to around 2.2 million euros. The western section of the bridge will be closed until further notice.
