Bridges

Bridges play a central role in infrastructure projects. From major connection bridges spanning fjords, sounds, and straits to valley bridges and road bridges on land, as well as wildlife crossings, pedestrian bridges, and cycle bridges. In Denmark, bridges have traditionally been built in concrete or steel, but in recent years there has been a growing focus on more sustainable solutions.

Bridge consulting based on many years of experience

SYSTRA is one of the country’s leading bridge consultancies. We have many years of experience in design, 3D modelling, supervision, and bridge consulting, based on extensive expertise in the planning and design of new bridge construction, inspections, and maintenance

SYSTRA is one of the country’s leading bridge consultancies. We have many years of experience in design across all phases, 3D modelling, supervision, construction management, as well as the operation and maintenance of bridges. We also have extensive expertise in other types of structures, such as wildlife crossings, retaining structures, and temporary structures, including formwork falsework.

Our specialist expertise in the design and maintenance of bridges and load-bearing structures is applied across a wide range of projects within both civil works and infrastructure. We are continuously involved in development projects focusing, among other things, on the use of new types of concrete and timber structures as alternatives to concrete and steel, while also exploring sustainable and cost-effective methods for structural monitoring.

Historically, we have completed many bridge projects as part of design-bid-build contracts in close and constructive collaboration with our clients to identify the right solution. In recent years, there has been an increase in design-build projects, where we contribute on behalf of either the client or the design-build contractor.

connecting town and nature

With the new bridge over Bredstenvej in Vejle, pedestrians and cyclists have gained a safe and attractive crossing between the town of Vejle and the future residential area of Ny Rosborg. The bridge was inaugurated in 2025 and serves as an important link, making travel simple and secure while also opening up access to green surroundings.

For Vejle Municipality, SYSTRA was responsible for everything from the initial design proposal and environmental screening to the completed detailed design. The result is a bridge that not only connects people and places, but also urban life and nature.
