🚊 Witnessing the Future of European Rail Infrastructure 🚊

Our #TeamJBO in Leer visited the construction site of the new railway bridge crossing the River Ems near Weener.

Deutsche Bahn is erecting Europe’s largest lift-and-turn bridge, reconnecting Leer and Groningen by rail.

The bridge will facilitate the easy passage of newbuild cruise liners from MEYER WERFT in Papenburg to Eemshaven.

Thanks to the team of Alexander Heinemann for their hospitality.
