Repair of the emblematic Ponte do Milenio of Ourense

Extraco has begun the repair works of the Ponte do Milenio in Ourense, in order to recover the aesthetics of the infrastructure and correct some faults found. This action is promoted by the Galician Agency of Infrastructures, and its maximum authority, the Regional Minister of Infrastructure and Housing, Ethel Vázquez, together with the Mayor of Ourense, Jesús Vázquez, already supervised the work herself during the first days.

The structural actions include the injection and sealing of cracks and joints, the placing of a new rolling layer and the removal of corrosion and humidity. The application of anti-graffiti paint, the repair of the lighting system and the removal of vegetation are included amongst the conservation works.

All the solutions adopted in this project are aimed at ensuring an appropriate degree of conservation and transmitting a good image of the bridge, a city icon and an important tourist attraction thanks to the views to Miño river from the pedestrian walkway.
