Eng. Ihab Khafaga - Deputy Manager of Bridges Department and Manager of Repairing and Restoration Unit at the company, explained that Al Amiriya Bridge is 650m long, 36m width and consists of 4 traffic lanes in each direction. He added that the bridge was built in 1983, and due to the heavy traffic and loads, it was necessary to start developing, upgrading and supporting the bridge for most of the bridge’s structural elements (columns, beams, slabs, sidewalks and walls) due to the deterioration of the technical condition ; its exposure to high traffic loads, weather factors and time factors. Due to the poor condition of the existing asphalt and the bridge’s traffic joints, the entire bridge is currently being scraped and repaved and the bridge’s traffic joints are being replaced. The new traffic loads were taken into consideration in accordance with the Egyptian code for bridge design, with the necessity of developing the aesthetic appearance of the bridge.
