Erfurt–Leipzig/Halle high-speed railway bridge, Berlstedt Erfurt–Leipzig/Halle high-speed railway bridge between Berlstedt and Neumark located north-east of Erfurt (route km 210.2 from Ebensfeld). The high-speed line is to be used by a mixture of freight trains and ICEs. Travel time on the line for the 120 km between Erfurt and Leipzig for ICEs is expected to be 39 minutes (compared to about 65 min at present) and between Erfurt and Halle it will be half an hour (about 75 min at present). It is expected to be completed by the end of 2015. Photo taken Monday 22 September 2014. Photo: Steffen Mokosch (Steffen.Mokosch@web.de) |

The new bridge crossing the B 264 east of Eschweiler-Weisweiler seen from
the west side on 11 May 2008. It will carry a new line from
Eschweiler-Weisweiler (currently the terminal station of the branch line coming
from Stolberg Hbf via Eschweiler-Talbahnhof) to Langerwehe (located on the
main line Cologne-Aachen). From December 2008 on Euregiobahn services will be
extended to Langerwehe (every train, half-hourly) and even Düren (every

The bridge crossing the street between Blatzheim and Manheim on the upgraded
line Cologne-Düren
(ABS 4)
seen from the north side on 23 August 2001. The old bridge for two tracks was
extended to carry three tracks. The southern part remained unchanged, this
track will be used for the S-Bahn (urban trains). The northern half of the old
bridge was removed to build a new bridge for the two highspeed tracks. Parts of
the old pillars remained under the new bridge, the old bricks show where they
were. The new pillars will be covered with bricks, too.

East of Pulheim, a bridge which will lead the new B59n road over the railway
line to Cologne is under construction. On 27 february 2005 (a sunday), a big
crane lifted the five steel girders into position. Obviously for safety reasons
the line was closed for this operation, passengers were transported by busses.
Later the space between the girders will be filled with concrete.
