Terratest participates in the project "Trans Gambia Bridge", a historic achievement in the rapprochement between Senegal and the Gambia.
After more than 40 years since the idea of a bridge that gives continuity to the road crossing the Gambia River was first conceived, this viaduct was inaugurated on Monday, January 21, which will notably improve communication between the north and southern Senegal.
Terratest contributed to make this project a reality, after more than two years of work, executing the foundations of the bridge, using Steel driven piles of 1200 and 1500 mm in diameter, reaching depths of up to 80 meters in some of the piles.
Our most sincere congratulations to all the participants who have made possible the construction of this important infrastructure for the region.
