Old bridge spans removed and new 600-tonne steel spans installed within a tightly controlled construction window using synchronized jacking and SPMT technology.
The Beresteiskyi Avenue–Vadym Hetman Street interchange is one of Kyiv’s key transport corridors, carrying thousands of vehicles every day. Replacing the aging bridge structure demanded an engineered solution that could dramatically reduce road closures while maintaining the highest standards of safety and precision.
The project involved dismantling the existing reinforced concrete bridge sections and installing new steel spans within an exceptionally short construction window. Every hour saved reduced traffic congestion, making efficient planning and flawless execution just as important as lifting capacity.
The bridge replacement was executed in two carefully planned stages. Existing reinforced concrete bridge sections, each weighing approximately 300 tonnes, were lifted and removed using self-propelled modular transporters (SPMTs). The new 600-tonne steel spans were then transported into position using a 2 × 16-line SPMT configuration and synchronized JS500 hydraulic jacking systems, supported by temporary portal structures for controlled load transfer. Final alignment was achieved through synchronized hydraulic lifting with controlled strokes of 1 to 3 metres, enabling millimetre-accurate positioning while significantly reducing the duration of road closures and disruption to one of Kyiv’s busiest urban transport routes.
Delivered the rapid replacement of major bridge spans using synchronized jacking and SPMTs, minimizing traffic disruption while safely installing new 600-tonne steel structures.
Installation of a 363-tonne bridge section using synchronized hydraulic jacking, JS500 lifting systems and SPMTs during the reconstruction of Kyiv's Beresteiskyi Interchange.
