Rehabilitation of an existing concrete structure, previously used as a railway underpass and now serving as a culvert for pedestrian and bicycle traffic.
The challenge
As part of the A1 roadway renewal near Lasbek in Schleswig-Holstein, the upper half of the deck of the old concrete structure was first removed. The remaining parts of the existing underpass were kept in place, making it possible to avoid complete demolition.
The challenge was to rehabilitate the structure within the existing alignment and conditions, while maintaining a practical construction process and preparing the asset for continued use as a pedestrian and cycle underpass.
The solution
ViaCon supplied a ViaPlate® 200 solution for the rehabilitation works. The structure was installed over the full length of the existing asset and pulled in section by section by our installation team. The area where the original structure had already been removed was then backfilled with suitable material.
This approach made it possible to rehabilitate the crossing without full removal of the existing structure, with a solution adapted to the project geometry and site conditions.
