The Port of Antwerp-Bruges is seeking to procure a new linkspan for roll-on/roll-off (Ro-Ro) operations in the outer port of Zeebrugge. This contract encompasses the design, fabrication, transportation, testing, and commissioning of the linkspan, as well as subsequent maintenance. The linkspan is specified to be a single-deck pontoon-style bridge with a two-lane roadway and pedestrian walkway, featuring guide pole guidance. It must have a minimum safe working load (SWL) of 220 tons and be capable of handling the largest Ro-Ro vessels, such as G-9 class or equivalent. The linkspan will operate in a tidal port environment, with the landside connection to an abutment. The tender includes a fixed part and potential sub-assignments. This procurement is crucial for enhancing the port's Ro-Ro handling capacity and efficiency, ensuring it can accommodate large vessels and maintain smooth operational flow.
