Jens Richter, Project Manager

Herculean job between cars and trains

“This project has its work cut out for it,” says Jens Richter. Outside the gates of Vienna, it's over with the Austrian coziness that is so fondly described. Richter is in charge of the new construction of the Heiligenstadt slope bridge. A Herculean task on, under and next to the bridge that often requires unorthodox solutions. After all, the bridge is crammed in with minimal clearances between a federal highway and the railroad.
