Opening of the Great Ruaha River Bridge in Tanzania

We are thrilled to announce that the Great Ruaha River Bridge in Tanzania has been officially opened for traffic.

This 133-meter, three-span, symmetrical steel girder bridge, designed with a steel composite superstructure and supported on elastomeric pot-bearings, now stands as a testament to engineering excellence.

The bridge was constructed using the incremental launching method, ensuring the river's natural flow remained unobstructed during the build.

This bridge will greatly enhance connectivity and transportation efficiency in the region, supporting Tanzania’s continued growth, sustainability, and development.
