Construction works continue on the special structures (V1, V2 and V3) and standard structures (PS1, PS2 and PS3), integrated into the EN211, with a total length of 2,522.32 metres.

The works awarded to ConstruGomes include reinforced concrete operations (formwork, shoring systems, reinforcement assembly and concrete placement) involving foundations, construction of abutments/retaining walls, execution of piers/capital heads, bridge decks and finishing works.

  • V1 Viaduct - 40 metres long and 17 metres high
  • V2 Viaduct - 155 metres long, distributed over 5 spans, and 21 metres high
  • V3 Viaduct - 85 metres long, distributed over 3 spans, and 22 metres high

In terms of construction solutions, portal shoring systems are being applied using H-33 trusses, T-500 towers and HEB 400 beams, together with ground-supported shoring systems (OC) for the execution of bridge decks, climbing formwork systems for the construction of piers and standard formwork systems for the remaining structural elements.
