Zutari’s team combined advanced digital tools with practical engineering expertise to deliver a sustainable rehabilitation.

• The design team used MIDAS Civil to create adaptable models that could be updated in real time with construction data, ensuring structural integrity at every stage.


• The bridge was also modelled in 3D with Revit to generate accurate drawings and confirm element fit.

During construction, drone imagery and remote collaboration replaced in-person inspections restricted by COVID-19, allowing progress to be tracked closely. Instead of demolishing the entire structure, only the deck and pier seating beams were replaced, while the pier columns, pile caps, and abutments were retained in good condition.

A major innovation was changing the bridge configuration from a simply supported to a continuous deck system. This reconfiguration reduced the number of joints by more than 70% and the number of bearings by 20%, which significantly improved durability and lowered future maintenance needs.
