The new movable pedestrian and cycle bridge over Porsgrunn river will have a double bascule to allow the passage of boats. It will be 204m long in total, divided into five spans (the main span with flaps is 66m).
The Norwegian contractor Consto AS is commissioned to build the new bridge and SYSTRA SWS, in collaboration with Degree of Freedom (main designer of the project), will be responsible for geotechnical design (RIG).
