Salvador Allende Bridge

About the Salvador Allende Bridge leads one of the busiest traffic connections in southeastern Berlin. The bridge over the Müggelspree was built in 1981 with two lanes on prestressed concrete fields over three river piers. Because of alkali-silicia reaction and increasing formation of cracks in the structure, the bridge must be renewed. First, the western part is dismantled and the foundation elements for the new building are produced. Road traffic should roll over the eastern half of the bridge during this period.
