ViaCon delivers a rapid-construction railway culvert to preserve road safety without disrupting traffic.
The Challenge
Being able to extend the lifespan of vital infrastructure, such as roadways, offers both cost savings and environmental benefits.
A hydraulic culvert located in the Istanbul-Kocaeli section of Turkey’s most important railway line, had reached the end of its service life. But being a critical part of the railway line connecting Europe and Asia, the line could not afford downtime, but needed to be fixed or replaced because it posed risks to the safety of existing railway traffic.
The Solution
As a result of studies carried out by the traffic administration in Turkey, it was determined that ViaCon solutions proved to be the only option for the reinforcement in this section.
The special MultiPlate section designed by ViaCon Turkey was used, and the hydraulic culvert continued to work safely and quickly without any traffic interruption.
