In Germany, modular bridge construction methods have so far been applied only to a limited extent compared to other European countries or North America. However, public road authorities are increasingly promoting the continuous improvement of such techniques. Initial pilot projects have either been completed already or are currently under construction. The Hammacherstrasse composite steel structure at A46-motorway close to Hagen illustrates the enormous potential of modular bridges in terms of reducing the loss that the economy is sustaining due to traffic disruptions. Optimizing such bridges...
