Project description

DB Netz AG is carrying out the replacement of the railway overpass (RO) Berliner Tor in the district of St. Georg in Hamburg.

The RO Berliner Tor (2-track intersection) is at the Berliner Tor station, an important intersection of Hamburg, which links the North and South of Hamburg with the West of the city as a hub (interchange station).

The new build of the RO is a 2-track truss bridge that lies in a curve, made of steel, with a span of 64 m.

The RO runs over the mainline track of the route 6100 Berlin-Hamburg and the suburban railway track route 1244 Hamburg central train station Aumühle.

The route 1120 Lübeck - Hamburg runs below the RO.

The works are carried out during normal operation, as far as possible.

The scope of services includes the replacement of the superstructure and the substructures, the replacement of supporting walls, track works, cable laying, adjustment of command and signalling technology and overhead contact line, adjustment work to the busbars of the suburban railway.
