Home > News and events > The first bridges are being built - March 2023
If you travel between Montmacq and Cambronne-lès-Ribécourt, you have certainly seen the first abutments “come out of the ground”, in particular those of the bridges which will cross the Oise and the future Canal Seine-Nord Europe.
Following the initial reinforcement work, the concrete pouring, which allows for the construction of the first abutments, was completed at the end of January 2023. Currently, the formwork and concreting of the structures are continuing. While these operations are visible on the construction site, the steel framework of the Seine-Nord Europe Canal bridge deck is taking shape in a fabrication workshop located in the Meuse region. Once finalized, the framework will be delivered to the construction site in 16-meter sections. These sections will then be joined end-to-end on-site to continue the bridge construction. See you in about a month!
Next, the existing bridges over the Oise Lateral Canal and the Oise River will be demolished to allow for the construction of three new bridges, built in a continuous line (bridge over the Oise River, over the CSNE canal, and over the Oise Lateral Canal). This operation will require the closure of the RD 66 road for several months starting at the end of 2023; the dates will be announced as soon as they are finalized.
