Completion of Construction Work on the 515 m long Kulmbachtel Bridge in Bavaria, Germany in 2008 will also see completion of the E50 between Paris, France and Prague in the Czech Republic.

The concrete reinforced bridge is supported by eight pairs of piers, which in profile are irregularly shaped octagons, measuring up to 33 m in height. Main contractor Dywidag is using formwork supplied by Peri to fast-track construction of the piers, pier heads and bridge deck.
