Builders have to replace the old concrete bearings (they are the technical details of the supports and the opening of a bridge) on new rubber, more durable. The main task set by the head of Igor Pushkarev - works efficiently and without stopping traffic on the bridge.
"Rudnevsky Bridge - the most important component in the transport system of Vladivostok. If you stop the movement on it, just cause a lot of congestion. Therefore put skilled task - to find a technology that will allow for repair of the bridge with no overlap vehicular movement, " - Said the mayor Igor Pushkarev.
Specialists work out different options and find the technology. To do this, replace the bearings will be used and special hydraulic jacks. In this case, all the works will be carried out under a bridge that will not interfere with motorists. Similar technology has been successfully used in the reconstruction of the bridge over the river Ussuri.
"After a major overhaul of support structures for the start of work on the bridge itself - namely, repair joints and laying a new layer of asphalt. These works will be carried out mainly at night with minimal limitation of motion ", - said the head of maintenance of housing and urban administration of Vladivostok Leonid Wilczynski.
After renovation Robinson bridge will consider the possibility of heavy traffic on it and passenger transport, but the capacity of this bridge is too low. It therefore remains crucial issue is the construction of a new four-lane bridge, as in Vladivostok develop new districts, and the number of vehicles each year is increasing.
"In the future we need to build a new bridge and Rudnevsky General plan envisaged. From the budget of Vladivostok can not do this, the construction is very expensive, - said Igor Pushkarev. - In this case we need a new bridge quad, built, as opposed to the present, in all building codes. Therefore, we have proposed to build it in the federal program "Economic and social development of the Far East and Transbaikalia for the period up to 2018." If the program is approved and funds, we will design and build. "
Recall that in December 2011 Rudnevsky bridge was closed to traffic due to the current emergency. Operatively were attracted specialists bridge builders who conducted emergency repairs joint between 15 and 16 of the support and movement on Robinson bridge was reopened, but with the restriction - travel allowed only cars. To limit access, set the frame height limiter, but drivers ignore the ban large vehicles going down prohibiting signs and knock down construction.
For reference:
Overpass Snegovaya Pad (Rudnevsky bridge) - Eighteen-span concrete bridge with a total length of 504 meters, with a width of 9 meters roadway and sidewalks - at 1.6 meters. The bridge was designed by the institute "Giprokommundortrans" HIC of Russia (Moscow), the period of construction: 1963. - December 1975.
Once finished, the bridge has not been used due to lack of spending on construction defects and failures of designers. Traffic on the bridge was opened to the ban movement of heavy trucks, but the object is put into operation was not. For a long time the bridge was abandoned, but in 2012 the administration of Vladivostok took an overpass on the balance sheet and had emergency repairs to major traffic artery of Vladivostok was not closed.
