Approach 17 Bridges until 2024

This is an old message.

In 2018, the General Board approved the Bridge Programming. The aim of this program is to bring the bridges into good, safe condition at an accelerated pace. The 17 bridges approach is part of Bridge Programming. The water board is committed to sustainable and, where possible, circular replacement.

Replacement of 17 bridges

Replacement of bridges in clusters

The bridges will be replaced in clusters, based on their similarity. The grouping is provisional. There may be reasons to change the grouping or to remove bridges from the list based on new insights. In that case, another bridge to be addressed will be added to the program.

Tender

In 2019, Royal Haskoning DHV assisted the water board with the tendering process for the project ‘Framework agreement for construction team to replace 17 bridges in the period 2019-2023’.

The water board considers sustainabilityand circularityto be important in the implementation. This aspect has been included in the request for proposals.

The Strukton/Oosterhof-Holman consortium was selected as the most suitable party.

Construction team

A construction team has been set up to replace the bridges.

  • the Noorderzijlvest water board
  • engineering firm Royal Haskoning DHV
  • Strukton/Oosterhof-Holmanl consortium.

They work out the assignment. The construction team also makes the sustainable and circular ambition more concrete. The sustainable aspects can, for example, include the possible reuse of materials, less transport during construction, or easier modular construction.
