📋 Tender Overview
As part of the four-track expansion of the Rhine Valley Railway Deutsche Bahn DB is building a modern station and a new rail infrastructure in Mllheim. Two additional tracks provide more capacity on the line. For the new tracks DB has to widen the existing railway bridge which carries the railway line south of Mllheim over the district road K 4946.Since the work is taking place directly next to and above the road a full closure of the K 4946 will be necessary from 8 May 2023 for a period of around one year. The detours will take place via the Richtbergspange and the federal road B 378 they will be signposted extensively.DB apologizes for the longer distances and the resulting inconvenience.This is how the bridge extension worksFor the two new tracks of the new line DB is extending the railway bridge to the east. The farm road which runs east of the existing line will be moved as part of the expansion and led over the K 4946 by means of a road bridge. Two reinforced concrete structures are being built for the railway tracks and the service road each with a length of 14 metres. The construction experts first erect foundations and abutment walls. From summer 2023 the bridge superstructures will take shape. Completion is scheduled for the second quarter of 2024.
