Maurer Joint Replacement Scheme
An innovative over-ramp system has been designed for the QEII Bridge at Dartford, enabling movement joint replacement whilst allowing uninterrupted traffic movement for road users.
An innovative technique which had been carefully considered and well organised in a time critical situation. This scheme also had transferable benefits.
The scheme was to replace the maurer joints on the QEII bridge and the innovation was to use the temporary ramping system to be installed on the bridge to allow the continuous flow of traffic over the bridge whilst we were carrying out the works overnight.
I was really pleased that the judges recognised the uniqueness of the scheme and the unusual circumstances. The QEII bridge is one of the largest spanning bridges in the country with large joint movements within the structure itself.
Hopefully [our innovation] can be replicated around the country and help others in how they can deliver their own schemes, reduce impact and improve safety for the travelling public and the workforce.
These Awards give us oxygen to be more and more innovative and look better and better…
