Copy linkProject : Bridge across the Sava river in Belgrade
Spanning the river Sava at the tip of Ada Ciganlija, the proposed new structure is going to be a single-pylon cable stayed bridge. As the most significant element of the Belgrade Inner City Semi-Ring Road, the new structure will provide increased network capacity, for both local and transit traffic. With its 200m high pylon and 376m span, the bridge will become a significant landmark of the City of Belgrade and its transportation infrastructure.
Belgrade Land Development Public Agency is commencing construction of Stage 1 of a new road section around the centre of Belgrade called “Inner City Semi-Ring Road” (ICSRR) with a third major road bridge across Sava River and associated approach roads, connecting Toshin Bunar to Radnicka intersection.
The project is being co-financed by the City of Belgrade (the City), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), and other financiers.
In order to assist with the implementation of the project, the City of Belgrade has selected a Consultant to perform the role of Project Manager and Engineer (PME) for the project. Following an international competitive tender, the Louis Berger Group, with main international offices in Washington DC, USA and Paris, France, and representative offices in Belgrade and Bucharest, were awarded the contract for provision of the PME services.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
| The Project is divided into three separate segments: | ||||
The total Project includes the sections from Toshin bunar (to the North of the Sava River) to Radnicka intersection (south of the Sava River), including the new Bridge over the Sava River providing an additional crossing point for traffic traveling between Novi Beograd and the central areas of the City. The bridge and the associated roads will form the first phase of the first section of the Inner City Semi-Ring Road. The Bridge The new cable stayed bridge, will pass over the tip of Ada Ciganlija island, carry six traffic lanes and a double track light rail line as well as two pedestrian/cycling lanes. The bridge is a 6 span, continuous superstructure with an overall length of 929 metres and deck width of 45.04 m. The main support system is a single pylon asymmetric cable stayed structure. The pylon is 200 metres high.The Preliminary Design was
completed by Ponting Maribor, DDC Ljubljana & CPV Novi Sad in 2006,
as a first-awarded concept design proposal on international competition
in 2004. The bridge is to be constructed using a Design-Build approach,
with the detailed design to be completed by the works contractor “Porr
technobau und Umwelt AG”. The contract will be administered under the
FIDIC Conditions of Contract for Plant and Design Build, (First
Edition, 1999). The north approach roads The total length of the north approach roads is 6812 metres with 2460 metres at ground level and 4352 metres elevated. The works are to be contracted on the basis of a re-measurement contract, with the Employer providing the works contractor with a detailed design.
