Bridges in Starnberg: urgent renovation measures necessary!

Starnberg, Deutschland - In the district of Starnberg, the bridge inspection is at the top of the agenda. With a view to the dramatic collapse of the Carol Bridge in Dresden, the State Building Office Weilheim identified alarming conditions on four bridges in Starnberg, which require immediate measures. The B 2 bridge over the Würm near Percha (grade 2.8), the B 2 bridge over the Georgenbach in Starnberg (3.4), the bridge of the state road 2068 over the Aubach north of Seefeld (3.4) and the bridge of the state road 2069 over the Maisinger Schlucht near Söcking (3.0) are particularly at risk, explains Building Office Michael Meister.

The grades between 3.0 and 3.4 indicate a "insufficient state of building" and signal an urgent need for action, even if there are currently no restrictions on use. The main cause of the damage is increasing heavy traffic and damage caused by road salt. The exact time for renovation measures remains uncertain, but the replacement of the Würmbrücke is already being planned. For the other bridges, between new construction and repair is currently being weighed, while planning for the Aubach Bridge is on hold due to capacity reasons. The bridge inspections take place regularly to ensure the safety of the transport infrastructure according to information from www.merkur.de .
