HCR'S 8 ERECTORS LIFT 120-TON SEGMENTS FOR YANGON'S INDUSTRIAL LIFELINE

Rising 125m beside the congested existing bridge, the new $289 million cable-stayed crossing over the Bago River is transforming connectivity between Thanlyin and Thaketa Township. HCR supplied 8 specialized segment erectors to handle 1,928m of 120-ton concrete segments – critical for accommodating heavy trucks from Yangon’s industrial zones.

Project Impact:

• ▶2x Traffic Flow: Dual 2-lane carriageways vs. single-lane bottleneck

• ▶Industrial Priority: Designed for 100-ton truck loads (existing bridge: 40-ton limit)

• ▶2023 Completion: On track to cut peak delays by 70%
