Abstract: |
The project “Sporen in Den Bosch” in it’s total is meant for the modernization and refurbishment of the railway area of Den Bosch. It is designed to solve several bottlenecks in the railway transport around Den Bosch. All the railway traffic around “Den Bosch” Station which is crossing the Dieze river, now has to pass on one double track steel bridge. During the process two new concrete trough bridges are to be built and the steel bridge is to be replaced while the railway traffic more or less has to continue. For these bridges a new concept of prefabricated concrete trough structures is used. The construction works started at the end of 2011 and will be finished in the spring of 2014. The client for the project is ProRail, the managing organisation of railway-infrastructure in the Netherlands. |
