To have a better access to the port of Zeebrugge a new steel arched bridge was installed, one of the heaviest of its type with its 90m length and 550t weight. The installation of the bridge was executed above the train tracks during weekend nights to minimize interference for train traffic. After a rising storm caused a cancellation during the originally scheduled weekend, the bridge was successfully installed during the following weekend.
