    New innovative bridge placed in the Netherlands

    http://nos.nl/artikel/347223-a27-kri...gaviaduct.html
    Video of the placement is there.
    Longest bridge lightweight bridge in the world.
    140 meters long in one section, 6.2 meters wide, made from steel and composite material, good for the heaviest traffic.
    Weighing in at 200 metric tonnes.

    A normal bridge would weigh 7 times more, the new bridge is 20 times stronger and needs little maintenance.
    Lots of interest from all over the world for this new concept.
