- Persisting Sections of Carola Bridge Remain Shut for Public Access
Following the partial collapse of the Carola Bridge in Dresden, those surviving sections won't be opening up any time soon. Holger Kalbe, head of the bridge and civil engineering department in Dresden, confirmed this, ruling out an immediate reopening of the other two bridge sections. This is the spot where vehicles traverse the Elbe. Alternative routes will be established. The segment that gave way was once linked to the other bridge spans. Moreover, further damage was discovered in that area. The entire infrastructure now necessitates a thorough inspection.
Despite the ongoing inspection of the entire infrastructure, Germany's authorities need to carefully assess the safety of the Carola Bridge before considering any reopening. The Carola Bridge, located in Dresden, serves as a crucial transportation route, highlighting the importance of its timely repair for Germany's transportation network.
