Arch spans raise the profile of Dutch city of Nijmegen

摘要

Construction of a new bridge over the Waal River in the city of Nijmegen in the Netherlands is under way with completion scheduled for November 2013. The new crossing, which is almost 1.4km long, was designed by Chris Poulissen and Laurent Ney, and will connect Nijmegen-West with Nijmegen-East. Construction started last May by consortium Bouwcombinatie Stadsbrug Nijmegen, which is formed of contractors Koninklijke BAM Groep and Max Bbgl.
