30th Annual Awards
32nd Annual Awards
Infrastructural Category and Overall Winner
The River Erne Bridge
The River Erne Bridge, with a total length of 140m including a 70m main span, is located at the northern end of the N3 Butlersbridge to Belturbet scheme and represents an aesthetically pleasing structure, which remains sympathetic to the scenic landscape along the River Erne. The structure is comprises a slender concrete deck with a double curved soffit, which minimises obstructions to views along the river, and four reinforced concrete pylons which provide support by means of saddles to the extradosed cables.
This is an exceptional bridge design, beautifully executed with cutting edge engineering design concepts. Extending 140m, including a 70m main span, the approach has produced a structure which adheres to the principals of geometric design, while minimising the impact on this environmentally sensitive river landscape. With its slender concrete deck and double curved concrete soffit, the bridge effortlessly spans the main body of the river. The quality of detailing throughout and the finish on the double curved concrete soffit in particular is hugely impressive.
