The exploration of various locations for leisure or pleasure purposes. In other words, traveling to visit different places for enjoyment and relaxation. - Restoration process in progress at the Rerik pier.
Following years of inactivity, the 170-meter-long seabridge in Rerik is undergoing renovation. Currently, the part walked on by pedestrians, known as the bridge superstructure, is being taken apart. Some wood planks and a portion of the railing have been removed. In the next construction phase, the concrete on the superstructure will be erased, as confirmed by Matthias Hübner, the head of Bauamt Neubukow-Salzhaff, in response to an inquiry on Thursday. Renovations commenced on May 21st.
"There's no more stagnation now," said Hübner. A tender for the concrete work will be released soon, followed by one for the replacement of the bridge superstructure. The foundations, known as foundation piles, will mostly stay in place, but will need to be lengthened so the seabridge maintains a consistent level from the land connection to the bridge head.
Four smaller bridge platforms, functioning as boat docking spots, will be torn down without replacement, alongside their foundation piles. The current estimation for the cost of demolition and reconstruction lies around 1.9 million euros.
