N21 Newcastle West Pavement Improvement & Pedestrian Bridge
- Client: Limerick City & County Council
- Location: Newcastle West, Limerick
About this Project
This contract required the manufacture off-site of a new architecturally designed bridge in Stainless Steel.
The 24m long steel bridge was transported to site in one single piece and lifted into position using a large 300ton crane and placed onto two preformed cast in-situ concrete abutments.
The bridge was constructed in the busy town of Newcastlewest in an urban environment on the N20.
A specialist temporary traffic management plan was implemented as part of the project to lift the bridge into place.
