PNC is building Norway’s longest railway bridge
The bridge crosses the River Vorma at the end of Lake Mjøsa at an angle of approximately 45 degrees to the three existing bridges, but is nevertheless the largest and most dominant structure on the route. With a total length of 836 m, spread over 19 piers, the bridge is Norway's longest railway bridge to date. The main span of 100 m is specially adapted to the Skibladner, also known as the ‘White Swan of Mjøsa’, which is Norway's only paddle steamer and the oldest ship in regular service. The Minnevika Bridge is being planned using Lean Construction, in particular The Last Planner System®, which involves the creation of milestone and phase plans, six-week forecast plans, weekly work plans and performance and KPI tracking together with our partners and subcontractors. This process enables excellent collaboration and coordination and promotes our continuous improvement mindset.
