The iconic Zeeland Bridge is the longest bridge in the Netherlands, crossing the Oosterschelde with a total length of over 5 km. The bridge is owned and maintained by the Province of Zeeland.
The extended work platform is primarily intended for inspection and maintenance activities on the western side of the Zeeland Bridge. The existing aerial work platform is used for inspection and maintenance activities on the western and underside of the bridge, while the East Aerial Work Platform is mainly intended for various inspection and maintenance activities on the eastern side. Access to these installations is only possible via the cycle path on the western side of the bridge.
With these customised solutions, we make an important contribution to the safe and efficient maintenance of this iconic Zeeland Bridge.
